Well, I'm still in a very early phase, but I'm indeed combining both Restate and SurrealDB together for a project that I'm building, where I persist the temporary state on Restate and permanent state on SurrealDB, and since both uses JSON as its lingua franca, it is pretty easy to serailize data between Restate and SurrealDB, very much so better than using MongoDB with BSON as many people would have naturally thought of what is supposed to be a better replacement than SurrealDB.

Oh, that's the reason the SurrealDB operator was here in the first place because I need the full K8S lifecycle to maintain the database state such as backing up, that is not really doable with Helm.
