Camunda + Liferay Community Meeting

Yesterday evening we met at our Partner Ancud IT in Nuremberg (Germany). Ancud presented their experiences using Portals (namely the Open Source Portal Liferay) in combination with Process Engines (namely Camunda :-)). That was already a topic in a recent webinar, you can check out the recording online: English or German. Afterwards we had interesting discussions about DMN use cases and a “social collaboration hub” research project. But let’s start from the beginning. Camunda + Liferay A process application needs a user interface. According to Ancud experiences this is most often a portal – or at least some home grown portal like thing. Personally I am not yet convinced as we still do a lot of non-portal projects – but…

camunda BPM Community Day 2014

Last Thursday we organized the 2nd camunda BPM community Day. After visiting Prague last year we went for the home game and invited the community to our Berlin offices. So we put all our desks and chairs and other stuff away to make room for the attendees. Around 65 people had registered and without doing an exact headcount, I suppose that more than 50 attended which Bernd described as “the biggest open source community day he ever attended”. Sandy Kemsley, who also attended, already published extensive summaries on the most of the talks so I am just going to link to them here: Australia Post at Camunda Community Day camunda Community Day technical presentations What’s Next In camunda – Wrapping…

What a wonderful community day in Prague

Last Friday we had our first camunda BPM community day! It was really awesome! Thanks everybody who joined. I am really impressed that we could organize that so close after the 7.0 release and so many people already traveled to Prague just for us. I can just repeat myself: AWESOME! Today I want to share some impressions and slides with you – we recorded the sessions and hope we will get videos online soon as well. Introduction & Vision After welcoming everybody Daniel talked about camunda BPM and the technical vision, which is about to empower developers to build awesome BPM applications. He briefly discussed the improved performance in 7.0 and I saw a lot of people nodding when Daniel…

The start of camunda.org community events

Last week we had our first two camunda.org community kick-off events. On Wednesday we were at the Deutsche WertpapierService Bank AG in Frankfurt followed by an evening on Thursday at LVM Versicherung in Münster. Both companies successfully work with camunda BPM and have spoken of their experiences with the platform. We also got a chance to present the camunda project to groups of about 20 BPM enthusiasts and had open discussions about aims, preferences, likes and wishes. A lot of positive feedback trickled through this week and more evenings with varying subjects will follow. Make sure to sign up to our newsletter to find out about what’s happening next and check out some pictures below. And last but not least, our…

New: camunda BPM-Community

Process management is not a bureaucratic evil but can be a key instrument for scalable business models. But to do so we need to get rid of our old ways of thinking. Need an example? The whole Zero Code BPM – Illusion, is one of many errors that have dominated process management in the past. On 18th March we released our BPM platform under an open source license as Business Process Management is impossible without IT (not everyone likes this, but it’s just the way it is). But of course BPM requires a lot more than purely a technical platform. That’s why we are also, bit by bit, providing our knowledge that we have acquired over the years. You can…
