Domain Driven Design: Lessons from the Startup World

We recently hosted the Domain Driven Design Berlin Meetup: Real World Domain Driven Design Example from the Startup World… and why this architecture failed in the end. Our speaker for the evening, the talented Sandra Ahlgrimm, Cloud Advocate at Microsoft, walked us through an interesting real-life case study, brimming with DevOps lessons. Here’s our key takeaways from this insightful evening

From contract to BPMN functionality in five weeks

“Functionality has been contracted. User acceptance testing is in five weeks. Is it a big deal to implement it?” What do you do when you’re handed a project with an incredibly tight deadline? This is exactly where SynerTrade found itself – with just five weeks to deliver a seriously complex approval workflow for a global financial client.

The Camunda Stack In 2018: The Year In Review

The year is coming to an end, so I want to take a moment to consider the progress our product teams have made this year and, most of all, thank everybody for their fantastic work. We have achieved great things this year, taking major steps in our mission to set the standard for workflow automation technology that brings developers and business people together. Where we are coming from and what drives us When we launched the Camunda open source project in 2013, we put forward a very [simple hypothesis]([ref “/post/2013/04/the-camunda-hypothesis.md”]): Business process automation projects are most successful when software developers and business people work together. In our opinion, only BPM software that enabled this was good BPM software. At the…

Zeebe in 2018: The Year In Review

As the year comes to a close, we’ll take a moment to review what was accomplished in Zeebe in 2018 and discuss what’s next to come. 2018 was an exciting year with many new features and significant conceptual updates that changed the scope of Zeebe. We’ll cover both in this post, and we’ll also talk about our efforts to spread the word about Zeebe around the globe.

RPA can delay your Digital Transformation

This is the most tangible insight I took away from attending an RPA conference in London this week. It was actually stated by one of the keynote speakers (he literally said: “many organizations use RPA to delay their digital transformation.”). I share this sentiment. Here is an RPA adoption journey that is not inevitable but can happen:

DMN is more than a Decision Table

Decision tables are the most common element from DMN. They are easy to use and can solve many problems. However, DMN has more elements like Business Knowledge Models, Contexts, Literal Expressions, Function Definitions, Invocations and more. In this post, I want to introduce the new extension for DMN and show how it can be used to model an example decision with the full power of DMN.

The (Re-)Emergence of Workflow Automation

This blog post is based on the keynote I presented at CamundaCon 2018. It covers these four points: We’re all turning into technology companies. Digital Transformation relies on Business Process Automation (BPA). BPA is a technology puzzle that suits your business. Workflow automation is always one piece of that puzzle. I am going to elaborate on each point and describe how I see Camunda contributing to this general development.

RPA and Camunda BPM: Integrate a Software Robot by Using External Tasks

In my recent post on RPA, I used asynchronous REST calls to integrate UiPath with Camunda. This only works if your RPA solution provides an API that can be used by third-party applications. Since I promised you that there would be a follow-up post, I want to take the opportunity to show you another approach of integrating an RPA tool with Camunda. This time, I decided to try out WorkFusion’s RPA Express, which is available for free. Scenario The overall scenario for using an RPA product is the same that I described in my last post — you need to replace manual work with an automated task, but the external system does not provide an API that can be called…
