AWS Step Functions is a serverless orchestration service that lets developers coordinate multiple AWS services (like Lambda functions, ECS tasks, or SQS) into visual, state-machine-based workflows. It's used to build resilient business processes and data pipelines with built-in error handling, retries, and parallel execution, without writing custom orchestration code. Common use cases include order processing, ETL pipelines, and multi-step approval workflows.
