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.

Bernd Rücker is a co-founder and developer advocate at Camunda. With Zeebe.io we provide a horizontally scalable workflow engine completely open source. We face a lot of customer scenarios where Zeebe needs to be connected to Apache Kafka (or the Confluent Platform).

Editor’s Note: This post originally appeared on Bernd Rücker’s blog and was cross-posted here with Bernd’s permission. Thanks Bernd! Your company might want to go for a microservice architecture and apply workflow automation (I do not go into the motivation why in this blog post, but you might want to read about 5 Workflow Automation Use Cases You Might Not Have Considered or BizDevOps — the true value proposition of workflow engines.) This sets you in company with a lot of our customers. Typically, you will have questions around: Scope and boundaries (“what workflow do you want to automate and how is this mapped to multiple microservices or bounded contexts in your landscape”). To limit the scope of this post I spare…

Please note that this blog post has not been updated since its original publication to reflect changes to Zeebe’s gateway.proto file. The general approach for creating a stub that we show here still applies to newer versions of Zeebe, but you may need to make a few modifications depending on which Zeebe version you’re using. The high points: Starting in Zeebe 0.12, Zeebe clients communicate with brokers via a stateless gRPC gateway, with Protocol Buffers used as the interface design language and message interchange format. gRPC makes it easy to generate a “client stub” in any of ten supported programming languages; this means it’s possible to use Zeebe in applications written in not only Java and Go–the languages with officially-supported…

Zeebe 0.12 supports message events, making it easy to use Zeebe as part of an event-driven architecture; workflow instances can to respond to events published by external systems. And Zeebe handles all of the heavy lifting related to correlating a message to a workflow instance: buffering incoming messages, opening a subscription to receive messages that match with active workflow instances, and correlating a message (when one exists) to a workflow instance that has arrived at a message event. Last month’s Zeebe 0.12 release introduced support for two BPMN elements that are core to Zeebe’s ability to operate in an event-driven architecture: the intermediate message catch event and the receive task. These elements make it possible for workflow instances to react…
