How to Connect Temporal.io to Astra DB in Just 5 Easy Steps with CQL-Proxy

Temporal.io is an open-source microservice orchestration platform that assists in tracking workflows in application development. It provides a plug-and-play persistence layer compatible with Postgres, MySQL, CockroachDB and Apache Cassandra. In this post, we show how to connect Temporal with Astra DB, a multi-cloud, serverless database-as-a-service (DBaaS), to easily manage workflows at scale using DataStax CQL-proxy. The process involves creating an Astra account and gathering credentials, setting up keyspaces in Astra, migrating schemas with Temporal's cql-proxy, configuring the persistence layer in Temporal, and testing connections and sample projects. This combination of Temporal and Astra DB provides a powerful microservice orchestration platform backed by Apache Cassandra without operational complexity.
