Cost & Evaluation
What are the long-term maintenance costs of the state store that durable execution relies on?
Plan for database operational tasks: backup and restore testing, index optimization, storage scaling, version upgrades, and schema evolution. As state grows, cost shifts from infrastructure to engineering time spent on performance tuning, data migration, and read capacity planning for replay. A key caveat: the store’s maintenance burden is tightly coupled to the platform’s state management patterns, not just data volume.
