Transactional Email Microservice with Zeebe and NestJS

NestJS is a JavaScript Microservices framework for Node.js inspired by Angular. For some time now, front-end developers have been able to get the benefits of configuration by convention, dependency injection, and composition using decorators to build code bases whose structure can scale. Now it’s time for backend developers to get the same benefits. NestJS is a framework that clearly meets a need felt in the community – it was the fastest growing Node.js framework in 2018 (measured by GitHub stars). NestJS leverages TypeScript, decorators, and the MVC architecture to enable developers to build applications that communicate over REST, WebSockets, gRPC, and GraphQL. With a new library from Dan Shapir – nestjs-zeebe – you can now integrate Zeebe into a NestJS…

How to Anonymize Task Worker Data

I recently got into a discussion about saving user ids of task workers in the database. During the last releases the Camunda Engine got very good in capturing all actions that are done in the Cockpit and in the Tasklist. This is nice for revisions, but some companies, especially in Germany, don’t want to track down every activity to an individual. There is a need to anonymize the work done by task workers: The group manager should not easily analyze who is the best of his team as all team members should be judged equally. In the lifecycle of a user task, you create the task with a candidate group and then a user claims the task and he becomes…
