Job Executor Improvements in Camunda BPM 7.4

If you’ve used Camunda BPM you might have noticed our engines briefest feature – it’s really really fast. Might be an idea to have a look at this whitepaper or read about our scalability if you haven’t experienced it for yourself. With the new job prioritization feature and the exponential backoff included in the new Camunda BPM 7.4.0- release you will now be able to improve the speed further by tuning the efficiency of your custom jobs among others. Imagine you have a lot of jobs (maybe 50,000) on a cluster environment which wait to be executed all at the same time. The current behavior of the engine (Camunda BPM 7.3.0) is to acquire all these jobs in parallel and…

External Tasks allows new Use Cases with Camunda BPM 7.4

In a recent Blog Post I wrote about a concept we call “External Tasks” where services were not actively called from the Workflow Engine (PUSH) but where “Workers” retrieve their tasks from the Workflow Engine (PULL). We discussed this a lot and got so much feedback that we decided to support this pattern out-of-the-box in Camunda BPM 7.4. Let’s have a look at an example (yes – we do have customers implementing video processing :-)): In this case transcoding and uploading a video file can take ages. It is done by special software which often does not have a SOAP or REST API to call. So in this case it is much easier to make an External Task out of…

Over 3700 BPMN 2.0 Diagrams for Research Purposes

We have put together a collection of BPMN 2.0 diagrams for research purposes. These diagrams have been created in our BPMN trainings, which we have been giving since 2008. In all of these trainings, the participants created BPMN diagrams based on so called text-to-model exercises. We provide you with the exercise texts, the participants’ results as well as our sample solutions. All diagrams have been anonymized and are provided as BPMN 2.0 XML files, which can be downloaded from our BPMN for Research repository on GitHub. The following diagram illustrates the process in which these diagrams have been created. There are German and English diagrams, which are sorted into folders of four separate exercises. Feedback Welcome! For research purposes the…
