NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar.

Durable computing, a recent movement in distributed computing, uses an architecture style of explicit state machine to persist the memory of serverless servers for better fault tolerance and recovery. Golem is one of the promoters of this movement. The concept can work in some scenarios, such as long-running microservices sagas or long-running workflows in AI agent orchestration. We've evaluated Temporal previously for similar purposes and Golem is another choice. With Golem you can write WebAssembly components in any supported language besides Golem being deterministic and supporting fast startup times. We think Golem is an exciting platform worth evaluating.
