Our take
The complexity of modern software systems puts a major strain on developers as it makes products difficult to plan, build and test. Cloud-native services simplify life for end-users, but app developers unfamiliar with the challenges of state management behind the construction of microservices. As the leading state management systems company, Temporal Technologies is an MIT licensed platform for unifying and managing application state.
The company offers an open source microservices orchestration platform, giving developers more time to code, while Temporal manages the scalability and reliability. The company’s technology is used to solve state management at an impressive list of cloud and tech companies, including Netflix, Doordash, Snap, and Google Cloud.
The company has achieved unicorn status with a valuation of over $1.5 billion following its early 2022 Series B. Temporal plans to use its latest Series "B-Prime" 2023 funding to continue growing its open-source community, and developing new features for its cloud offering.
