This will be our last newsletter of 2023, so it’s filled with tons of updates like the Temporal .NET SDK is now Generally Available!
We will also be hosting a webinar next week to discuss how workflows are written with the new .NET SDK and the interesting challenges encountered during the development of SDKs.
For more information on these updates and other things we’ve been working on, just keep reading! And as always, we’d love to hear from you—feel free to share feedback in our Community Slack, or on Twitter (@temporalio).
Notable New Technology Features:
- Schedules, a flexible and durable replacement for traditional Cron jobs, are now Generally Available.
