Business workflow platform design (2)

Indeed, as others have said, WF Only one Foundation Instead of Platform If you want to support a complete business workflow platform, it is not technically difficult to implement this platform. I think Microsoft should be able to achieve this, maybe the next version :). Maybe Platform And Foundation Microsoft is more interested in Foundation . In short, the current application is still troublesome.

So Microsoft does not platform , how can we implement this platform ? Let's first look at a problem we encountered:

L each business field has its own workflow, this is a better solution. We can place different templates for different business areas.

L in the same business field, different applications may be very different. This can also be done by extending the templates in a business field.

L How to easily integrate data in the application system into the business workflow platform for processing? The dataset consists of two phases: design time and runtime. For example, roles, users, and other information in the review are specified during design; the review data of all personnel is stored and calculated and merged during runtime. Access to all such data should be performed by custom activities (a relatively independent operation link ). The specific details are described in the Custom activity.

as a platform, the content above is insufficient, I will explain each step described in the previous Article . To be continued.
