Thats too broad a question - :-) So you will get "broad" answers for that! :-)
You can take a look at jBPM project - I think jboss has taken up the "ownership" for the project. While I have not used it, I believe there is some activity and interest in the project. If you are looking at providing a webservices based workflow, then look at the BPEL (business process execution language). The distinct drawback I can see with this is that it assumes that all the "nodes" in the workflow are necessarily exposed as a webservice. In my opinion, that is a tight constraint and in most cases may be an overhead. But I like the concept. Collaxa was one of the implementors of this BPEL specification. Collaxa is now aquired by Oracle. I have just listed a couple of options I know. You should explore a bit more and choose the one that best suits your needs. ~raghu~ On 1/11/06, Thomas Joseph <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi All, > > What is the best way to implement workflow for an interactive application. > Any good architecture, best practices, patterns etc. > > Please indicate if I should address this to a different mailing list. > > > Thanks in advance > > Thomas Joseph > > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > >
