I'm doing one quick last edit pass directly on the branch and will push the commit soon. But I'll post some questions here.


In a typical sequential process, activities need to execute one after the other in a particular order. Optionally, the upcoming activity may require some output from the previous function. This dependency on the ordering of activities creates a function chain of execution.

The benefit of using Durable Functions to implement this workflow pattern comes from its ability to do checkpointing. If the server crashes, the network times out or some other issue occurs, Durable functions is able to resume from the last known state and continue running your workflow event if it's on another server.
