What happens to running Dapr Workflow instances during a Catalyst platform upgrade?

Catalyst supports zero-downtime upgrades for Dapr Workflow instances. Running workflows continue to execute without interruption, and new instances use the updated runtime. Catalyst manages versioning and compatibility, so you don't need to drain or restart workflows manually. This is a key operational improvement over self-managed Dapr Workflow, where upgrades often require careful coordination.
