| What it does |

|
| Considerations | Check runtime limits, concurrency and hosted usage pricing. Retried tasks must be designed so external actions are not accidentally repeated. | Check supported SDKs, worker operations and hosted pricing. Plan for task idempotency, secrets and infrastructure ownership in self-hosted deployments. | Review concurrency, execution allowances and deployment integration. Durable orchestration does not remove the need for idempotent external side effects. |
