Manu Srivastava (Engineering Manager) and Xinyi Chen (Staff Software Engineer) from Temporal share practical lessons from running Temporal Cloud's own control plane on Temporal, a system now processing billions of billable actions per month. The talk covers five years of architecture evolution, what broke as the system scaled, and the design tradeoffs behind the decisions that kept it running.
