Architecture principles of the runtime foundation
- Stable logical placement of workflow identity at a responsible execution boundary.
- Localized state changes instead of an implicit cluster-wide write transaction.
- Explicit distributed read views instead of hidden global database semantics.
- Fail-closed ownership when routing state is unclear or contradictory.
- Recoverable ownership transfer as a controlled operating action.
Why this matters for long-lived workflows
Workflows can outlive individual deployments. A logical ownership boundary keeps business process identity stable while infrastructure can evolve in a controlled way.
The public page describes the technical effect rather than the mechanism used to achieve it.
