Restate Comparison

What operational overhead does Restate have compared to Catalyst for running AI agents at scale?

Restate is a lightweight runtime you self-host, requiring you to manage scaling, identity, and policy. Catalyst is a managed platform that handles these operations, including workload identity, MCP authorization, and verifiable execution from cloud to air-gapped environments. For teams scaling agentic workflows across multiple frameworks, Catalyst reduces operational burden by providing these capabilities out of the box.
