Activiti: a developer-friendly process engine

Evolved from jBPM, Activiti is an open-source workflow and process engine for Java. Unlike big-vendor BPM platforms that are traditionally bloated and targeted at business analysts, Activiti is developer-oriented, light-weight, easy to learn and manage. Modeling your processes in Activiti makes them self-documenting, organized, and manageable. Process state is persisted to a database which creates a convenient audit log to know what happened when and can even be the basis for a Business Intelligence (BI) tool. Activiti processes are modeled using an Eclipse plugin and managed using a simple web application. The runtime engine can either be deployed as a WAR or embedded into your Java application. An optional REST interface allows for language-agnostic and remote interaction with the process management API. This presentation will be an overview of Activiti and the concepts involved, followed by a demo of how to model, deploy, execute, and monitor a process. About the Speaker Travis Carlson was a founding developer at MuleSoft and created the jBPM and Drools integration for Mule. He works as an Independent Consultant as well as Systems Architect for ITDatabase, a small company which creates SaaS applications for tech PR and marketing. His website is http://tcarlson.systems
