PostgreSQL

PostgreSQL is the recommended default for most production DurableStack deployments.

It supports durable state and multi-worker distributed coordination through shared tables.

Registration

using DurableStack.Hosting.DependencyInjection;

var connectionString = "Host=localhost;Port=5432;Database=durable_stack;Username=postgres;Password=postgres";

builder.Services.AddDurableStackPostgres(connectionString, options =>
{
    options.WorkerName = $"orders-api-{Environment.MachineName}-{Environment.ProcessId}";
});

Operational notes

• Run migrations on startup via IDurableStackStoreMigrator.
• Keep retention enabled to control run-history growth.
• Validate multi-worker behavior in staging before scaling out.
