Listen up, keep your privates private!

In a recent blog post, I described a use case based on facial image recognition to perform an authentication task. In an ideal process, the recognition system either passes or fails the recognition task and the process proceeds via straight through processing to completion. In practice there is a fuzzy boundary between these two outcomes where human judgment via a human task is injected into the process. Now consider the case where say an image of a driver license is used as a reference image. This image contains particularly sensitive information. Hence if a user is required to access this image, have we taken all reasonable steps to protect this information and provide access on a need to know basis?…

Camunda Optimize 2.1.0-alpha2 Released

We are happy to announce the release of Camunda Optimize version 2.1.0-alpha2. This release marks the second alpha release of Camunda Optimize 2.1.0. It is also the last alpha release of Optimize 2.1.0 before we release the final version of 2.1.0 next month. The current alpha version handles authorization for users and process definitions so that only users who are authorized to access Optimize can use it and can only see the Process Definitions they are allowed to see. In addition, we added the possibility to add external reports to dashboards and added a new Progress Bar Visualization for single number reports.

Let’s Face it, BPMN and DMN Rock!

I often describe process based applications as a lot like Lego ®. Functions and services are like the different types and styles of bricks, BPMN process models are the instructions to assemble those bricks into desired models or outcomes. Hence much like the Lego analogy, from a few re-usable services, I can use BPMN processes to assemble a multitude of useful outcomes. With the trend towards public API’s and the ease of access to cloud based services, my Lego kit just got a whole lot larger! Amazon Web Services (AWS) recently released additional Artificial Intelligence (AI) services into their Platform as a Service (PaaS) offering. One in particular called Rekognition caught my attention. Rekognition includes a set of image processing…

End-To-End Workflow Automation with RPA and Camunda BPM

There’s no shortage of hype around RPA (Robotic Process Automation), and you don’t have to take our word for it: in a July 2017 report, Gartner declared RPA to be at the peak of the so-called Hype Cycle. RPA’s underlying value proposition is indeed compelling. The automation of tedious, manual tasks trapped inside legacy software systems with no API provides enterprises with measurable benefits.

Camunda BPM, our business process management platform, powers critical workflows for more than 200 enterprise customers, and the open-source edition of the platform is downloaded thousands of times each month.
