How Vodafone modernized legacy architecture with Camunda

Vodafone Germany is the largest national company in the Vodafone Group — in fact, every second German is a Vodafone customer. As an established leader in the telco industry, Vodafone faced several legacy technology problems that were creating issues for the business and customers. Its OTELO and branded reseller IT system ran a vast number of different services, supporting an array of customer-facing channels — from campaigns and product offers to POS. However, it was impossible to separate the channels and, without an effective API layer in the infrastructure, Vodafone couldn’t establish an important online partner channel that was urgently required within its branded reseller and second brand segments.  This legacy services technology wasn’t just ineffective to use and difficult…

Camunda at NASA: Perseverance prepares to land on Mars

A mammoth seven-month, 470-million-km (292,044-million-miles) journey is about to come to an end — in just a few short hours the Perseverance rover is scheduled to touch down on Mars.  But the hardest part of the journey is still to come. The descent down to the Red Planet, dubbed “seven minutes of terror” by NASA engineers, will see Perseverance slow its descent from a blistering 20,000km/h (12,427m/ph) down to a ‘slow walk’, before gently landing in Jezero Crater. A NASA illustration showing the Perseverance heat shield separation, which will occur during descent today — Courtesy NASA/JPL-Caltech NASA Mission Control expects to receive confirmation that it has hit the top of the Martian atmosphere at around 21:48 CET / 15:48 EST…

“Hello Cloud”

Setting up your Telegram channel with Camunda Cloud  If you’re a runner, then you know it’s important to change your running shoes from time to time. I’ve run many miles with the Camunda Platform. I’ve used it for my own projects, for tutorials, and taught people how to use it in workshops. Now, it’s time to put on some new shoes: it’s time to automate a process with Camunda Cloud. If you’ve also been using Camunda Platform and are interested in what it looks like to move to Camunda Cloud, come for a run with me. In the continuing pandemic situation, I need to stay informed, and know as soon as the situation relaxes. I find myself checking the Corona…

Automate manual tasks with Camunda and Trello

This article is the third in a series exploring fun, straightforward ways you can control workflows using Camunda Cloud — have a read of the others for some background if you’d like to see Camunda Cloud in action with Restzeebe, without a line of code: In the first two articles of this series you learned how to execute workflows, how to control the flow and take different paths depending on the context, and how workers execute their individual code in a task. These examples might have felt a bit too theoretical, so now I would like to present you with a use case: controlling manual tasks with to-do lists. Manual processes still exist, more often than you might think. For example,…

Announcing Zeebe, Operate and Tasklist 1.0.0-alpha1

Today we are excited to announce the three releases: In this post, we’ll highlight some of the new capabilities introduced in these alpha releases. Zeebe 1.0.0-alpha1 Zeebe 1.0.0-alpha1 is a big milestone for us. With this release we made major improvements to Zeebe’s Performance and Memory Management and removed YAML workflow support. Improved Performance and Memory Management We have made significant improvements to Zeebe’s performance and memory management by migrating RocksDB to use a one column family. We tested performance during our normal benchmark, which starts a simple process with one task and around 40kb payload. We use three brokers with three partitions and a replication factor of three. We observed that we were able to: – Reduce memory consumption by a…

Beyond RPA: How to Build Toward End-to-end Process Automation

Robotic Process Automation has come of age, with Forrester Research predicting the RPA market revenue is on target to reach $2.9 billion this year. It’s not hard to see why this market is maturing fast, with RPA promising an easy and quick fix to automate many of the manual, repetitive tasks that require manual data input or an exchange of data with an inflexible legacy system. RPA bots can be deployed quickly and deliver an immediate productivity boost, not to mention significant cost savings. But with so many tools available on the market — you can find everything from vendors promoting low-code solutions to code-heavy approaches, all marketed under the RPA banner —  it’s becoming imperative to differentiate RPA from…

Is there an alternative to spaghetti?

When it comes to food, definitely not. Spaghetti Bolognese needs few ingredients, is quickly prepared and always tastes great – at least to me 😉 But what I am actually getting at? Spaghetti Code. In contrast to a meal, Spaghetti Code is not eaten up in a few minutes. It stays, is extended, changes, grows and grows and grows. It is the same with microservices. If you start with microservices, you always have to consider how fine-grained services are cut. In the end, the spaghetti effect shifts from code to orchestrating components. This component must know all the small services and connect them with each other. The same can be found in manual activities that have not been automated or…
