SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Cloudflare Workflows enable durable, multi-step, long-running processes that exceed Worker limits, providing state persistence and robust retries.

Core Features & Use Cases

Durable orchestration of background jobs, saga-pattern workflows, and stateful pipelines.
Step-based patterns including sequential, parallel, and fan-out/fan-in with clear retry semantics.
Starter boilerplate and best-practice guidance for creating, debugging, and starting workflows from HTTP or queues.

Quick Start

Create a simple OrderProcessorWorkflow and expose an HTTP endpoint to trigger it.

FAQPage Schema

How do I orchestrate long-running background jobs that exceed Worker execution limits?▼

Cloudflare Workflows orchestrate long-running background jobs by providing durable state persistence and robust retries for multi-step pipelines that exceed Worker execution limits. This Skill supplies the boilerplate to implement them safely.

How do I implement saga patterns and stateful pipelines on Cloudflare Workers?▼

Saga patterns and stateful pipelines are implemented using step-based orchestration patterns including sequential, parallel, and fan-out/fan-in steps. This provides clear retry semantics and state persistence for complex tasks.

What is the best way to trigger a Cloudflare Workflow from an HTTP request or queue?▼

Triggering a Cloudflare Workflow from HTTP requests or queues is supported through provided starter boilerplate and best-practice guidance. You can expose an HTTP endpoint to create and start workflows like an OrderProcessorWorkflow.

Can I use Cloudflare Workflows for fan-out and fan-in parallel processing tasks?▼

Cloudflare Workflows support fan-out and fan-in parallel processing tasks through step-based patterns. These patterns include clear retry semantics, enabling durable orchestration of complex background jobs.

When should I use Cloudflare Workflows instead of standard Workers for background processing?▼

Use Cloudflare Workflows for background processing when tasks require durable state persistence, multi-step orchestration, or robust retries that exceed standard Worker execution limits. Standard Workers are better for short-lived, stateless requests.
