Alternatives: DBOS & Inngest
How do Catalyst, DBOS, and Inngest support deployment in air-gapped or VPC-locked environments where external SaaS calls are prohibited?
Catalyst provides a self-hosted option where both the control plane and sidecar operate within your perimeter, requiring no external calls. DBOS runs on a user-managed Postgres, making it suitable for fully disconnected environments. Inngest’s standard offering is cloud-based and requires outbound connectivity; confirm with the vendor whether a dedicated on-premises deployment is available as of the verification date to meet strict network constraints.
