About Temporal Technologies
Temporal Technologies was founded in 2019 by Maxim Fateev and Samar Abbas, both veterans from Amazon Web Services where they worked on the Simple Workflow Service (SWF). They created Temporal to address the challenges developers encounter when building and maintaining complex distributed applications, aiming to provide a scalable, robust solution for orchestration of microservices and workflows. The company is the result of over 20 years of development experience from teams behind AWS SQS, AWS SWF, Azure Durable Functions, and Uber’s Cadence project.
Temporal offers a durable execution platform and cloud-based managed service, Temporal Cloud, designed to simplify software development by abstracting the complexities of distributed systems. It enables developers to focus on writing business logic while automatically managing workflow execution, reliability, and visibility of long-running or mission-critical applications.
Its platform has been widely adopted, with over 183,000 weekly active open-source developers and deployments exceeding 7 million. Temporal is used by many leading enterprises such as Snap, Netflix, HashiCorp, Box, and Datadog for reliable large-scale workflows and powers AI initiatives across various industries, including foundational AI labs and Fortune 500 modernization projects.
The company has successfully raised significant funding, including a $146 million Series C round at a $1.72 billion valuation, led by Tiger Global among other investors, to accelerate product development and market reach, especially in AI and cloud interoperability domains. Temporal continues to invest heavily in enhancing developer experience, security, reliability, and hybrid cloud solutions.
Based in Bellevue, Washington, Temporal Technologies stands as a major force in the software and cloud computing sector, transforming how distributed applications are built and operated globally.
