Restate Comparison
How do I choose between Restate and Catalyst for a multi-framework agent architecture?
Choose Restate if you need a lightweight, deterministic durable execution runtime and plan to use a single agent framework with custom state management. Choose Catalyst if you want to run multiple agent frameworks (LangGraph, CrewAI, OpenAI SDK) under a governed platform with workload identity, MCP policy, and verifiable execution. Catalyst's framework-agnostic design lets you switch or combine frameworks without rearchitecting durability.
