Restate Comparison
Which platform handles probabilistic agent workflows better: Catalyst or Restate?
Catalyst is purpose-built for probabilistic agent workflows, supporting framework-agnostic runners that handle non-deterministic outputs from LLMs and tool calls. Restate's journaled execution model assumes deterministic operations, making it less suitable for agentic tasks where outcomes vary. If your workflows involve AI decision-making, choose Catalyst; for purely deterministic service logic, Restate may suffice.
