## Persistence and Resumability

!!! info "No Native Persistence"
Unlike the [original Graph API](../../graph.md#state-persistence), the beta graph API does not include built-in state persistence. This is due to the [complexity of achieving consistent snapshotting with parallel execution](https://github.com/pydantic/pydantic-ai/issues/530#issuecomment-3504609992).

For workflows that need to preserve progress across failures, restarts, or long-running operations, use one of the supported [durable execution](../../durable_execution/overview.md) solutions.
