Historique du projet

The Cadence repository describes the platform as open source since 2017 and containing the core orchestration engine plus CLI, schema management, benchmark, and canary tools. Its backend runs multiple services with a database such as Cassandra, MySQL, or PostgreSQL, optionally paired with Kafka and Elasticsearch/OpenSearch-style visibility components.

Cadence grew out of the durable workflow lineage associated with systems such as Amazon SWF and later inspired the 2019 Temporal fork. Official Cadence documentation now frames Cadence and Temporal as sharing the same durable execution model while diverging in governance, ecosystem, cost model, and operational emphasis.

Historique d'adoption

Cadence's adoption is anchored by large-scale Uber production use. The official comparison page says Cadence grew at Uber from fewer than 100 domains at the Temporal fork point to over 4,000 domains, facilitating billions of workflows and hundreds of billions of updates monthly.

The project also moved into broader open-source governance: the official FAQ identifies Cadence as a CNCF Sandbox project under the Linux Foundation, with an ecosystem of about 150 companies and open governance. The Homebrew formula packages the server-side tools and CLI-oriented binaries for local development and operations.

Modes d'utilisation

A typical Cadence deployment runs backend services, persistence, optional visibility infrastructure, and workers containing application workflow code. Operators use the Cadence CLI to inspect and operate workflows, task lists, domains, and clusters; the Homebrew package includes server, SQL schema, Cassandra schema, and canary tools.

Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

Cadence is significant in package-manager culture because it packages a distributed system, not just a command. The formula exposes multiple operational binaries, schema tools, config trees, and version-coupled server/client expectations, which makes it a useful case study for packaging infrastructure software that straddles local development, production operations, and service orchestration.
