Building workflows

NimbusCart, a fast-growing online retailer, is rebuilding its order-processing pipeline. The workflow must run a strict sequence of steps: validate the order, charge payment, reserve inventory, then arrange shipping, with automatic retries on failure and a single dashboard showing the status of every step. The platform team is deciding which service coordination pattern fits best.

Use the app to toggle between the Orchestration and Choreography modes and compare how each coordinates the same four-service workflow.

Question: Based on what each mode shows, which coordination pattern best fits NimbusCart's need to run the four steps in a strict order, retry failures automatically, and show the status of every step on a single dashboard?
