Just Use Postgres for Durable Workflows

Can you expand on why you chose to use CRDB with Oban? I have no opinion here, I’m genuinely curious as someone using Oban myself (with Postgres). I haven’t hit the point of really needing to scale it out yet and I’d rather avoid the traps others have figured out.

sorentwo is the author of Oban. He's not using CockroachDB, he's supporting it as a valid Oban target.

Ah ok thanks for the clarification. And thank you sorentwo for your fantastic work – I've been loving my switch to the Elixir ecosystem thanks to the efforts of folks like you.
