The Zeebe Story

I’m incredibly excited that Zeebe is now GA and ready to be used in production. You can download the distribution and inspect the source code on GitHub. Zeebe implements fundamentally new concepts for workflow automation which allow for unprecedented horizontal scalability. With Zeebe, you can orchestrate microservices of any scale while ensuring complete visibility into the executed business processes. This solves one of the major problems we are seeing in the software development space today, a problem that cannot be solved by any of the existing workflow products in the market.

Solving Santa’s Sequencing Problem Using Domain Narrowing Constraint Propagation Based on DMN collect hit policies.

CamundaCon 2019 is just around the corner! Rob Parker, Enterprise Architect at Australia Post, will be presenting Innovative Problems For Elegant Solutions and he’s shared with us a sneak peak at the kind of out-of-the-box thinking his presentation will cover: Everybody is likely familiar with Sudoku puzzles. When I solve them, I typically use little pencil marks to track which values are still feasible in unresolved cells. In other words, for each unresolved cell, I annotate it with the set of remaining possible values or its domain. As each cell is solved, the implication is propagated to its neighboring cells by crossing off the infeasible values (domain narrowing) from each set of candidate values. This technique is effectively a form…

How to Find NullPointerExceptions for Process Variables During Build Time

The viadee Process Application Validator (vPAV) was released well over a year ago on GitHub in order to check the interplay of models and code as part of a CI build. Since then vPAV has gained traction and more features were developed. It also provides extensibility to create your own set of checkers. The major release version 3.0.0 comes with many new features, such as a revamped HTML report, inheritance of rules, multiple instantiations of checkers with varying configurations, remote location of process models, multi-language support and most of all a reworked ProcessVariableModelChecker (see release notes). Process Variable Flow Validation For the better part of the last two months, the ProcessVariableModelChecker has been reworked to finally lift the experimental status…

The Journey of Camunda BPM Asserts: From Extension to Platform

For the people who have been in any way involved with the Camunda Community the last few years, this is unlikely to be the first time you’ve heard the name Martin Schimak. Also if you’re a developer using Camunda, chances are that, perhaps unbeknownst to you – you’ve been greatly helped by some of the projects that Martin has created and released as open source extensions for the platform. Having people like Martin as part of the Camunda Community is an important factor to the success and adoption of the Open Source platform, so I wanted to talk to Martin about how he came to be such a positive influence on the project. Perhaps learning from him how to encourage…
