Description

My organization has a use case (IoT, Edge) where We need our app to be reliable running under limited resources (hardware with limited capacity, for instance: CPU with 2 cores and 2 Gb ram). We consider temporal as the right choice, to build our apps, however, we realized that the current default setup of temporal might need adjustments, documentation on how to run properly under such scenarios. Also, we consider that perhaps an in-memory DB along with simple binary (temporal) would be a better choice for executing workflows with good throughput. After discussing with Wenquan Xing, this looks feasible.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reviewing Temporal's current default setup and the stated feasibility of an in-memory database with a simple Temporal binary for limited-resource hardware. Done requires a defined implementation or documentation scope for that deployment scenario.
