Hatchet vs Raygun: at a glance
What is Hatchet?
Hatchet takes durable tasks serverless, with handlers for Cloudflare Workers, Vercel and Node.
Hatchet's new @hatchet-dev/serverless 0.1.0 runs tasks on Cloudflare Workers, Vercel and Node. An in-engine operator delivers them by signed POST or by an invocation websocket that also carries durable sleeps, waits and child runs. Around it, the engine shipped three patches in a day: DAG replays no longer take an advisory lock, worker shutdown now waits for durable tasks, and status queries use partition pruning. The API now declares 429 with Retry-After on every authenticated call.
What is Raygun?
Raygun's public changelog stops in November 2024, mid-SDK-maintenance.
The crawled changelog runs from June 2022 to November 2024 and then stops. Its final entries are SDK upkeep across the .NET family: a memory-leak fix in Raygun4Net v8.2.1, a Serilog sink patch, a MAUI release candidate. Product-side work in the visible window is confined to Real User Monitoring CSV exports and a frequency chart on Crash Reporting search results, both from early 2024.

Hatchet takes durable tasks serverless, with handlers for Cloudflare Workers, Vercel and Node.
◆ Current state
Hatchet's new @hatchet-dev/serverless 0.1.0 runs tasks on Cloudflare Workers, Vercel and Node. An in-engine operator delivers them by signed POST or by an invocation websocket that also carries durable sleeps, waits and child runs. Around it, the engine shipped three patches in a day: DAG replays no longer take an advisory lock, worker shutdown now waits for durable tasks, and status queries use partition pruning. The API now declares 429 with Retry-After on every authenticated call.
◆ Where it's heading
Until now, running Hatchet meant running long-lived workers. The serverless package removes that requirement, so durable execution can run where JavaScript teams already deploy. The engine work points the same way: rate limits declared in the spec, safer worker acks, cheaper status queries. Patch cadence is still very high, often several engine tags a day, and much of it fixes durable-task edge cases.
◆ Prediction
Expect quick 0.1.x serverless releases as early users hit edge cases on each platform, and possibly matching Python handlers. More engine patches on durable-task shutdown and replay are likely.
Raygun
0.0INFRA · APIS
Raygun's public changelog stops in November 2024, mid-SDK-maintenance.
◆ Current state
The crawled changelog runs from June 2022 to November 2024 and then stops. Its final entries are SDK upkeep across the .NET family: a memory-leak fix in Raygun4Net v8.2.1, a Serilog sink patch, a MAUI release candidate. Product-side work in the visible window is confined to Real User Monitoring CSV exports and a frequency chart on Crash Reporting search results, both from early 2024.
◆ Where it's heading
Across the window the pattern is client-library upkeep rather than platform direction: keeping .NET, MAUI and Serilog integrations current while sanding edges on Crash Reporting and RUM views. Raygun4Net v9.0.0 in February 2024 is the one structural move, dropping legacy framework support and shifting message delivery to a background queue. Whether that consolidation continued cannot be read from this feed.
◆ Prediction
No grounded prediction is available: the feed has been silent for roughly 21 months, so the current roadmap is invisible here. The open question is whether the changelog moved elsewhere rather than whether Raygun stopped shipping.
