Restate Comparison

What operational differences exist between running Catalyst and Restate in air-gapped environments?

Catalyst is designed to run from cloud to air-gapped environments, with support for private deployments and offline operation. Restate is typically deployed as a self-hosted runtime, which can also run air-gapped, but requires you to manage infrastructure and updates. Catalyst provides a managed platform with built-in durability and identity, reducing operational overhead in restricted networks. Choose Catalyst if you want a managed solution for air-gapped agent workflows.
