OPEN SOURCE
-----------
Idempotency Orchestrator (Spring Boot)
- pluggable store backends
- saga coordination
- AOP-based integration
- built to BFSI-grade reliability requirements
- started after solving this problem slightly differently

also on github:
tomcat-install-script Ubuntu setup, more widely used than expected
postgres-docker backup-populated pg container, reached for often
springboot-graphql-demo / react-graphql-demo
from a real REST vs GraphQL evaluation
