DevConf.CZ 2020

Nowadays, Business Process Management (BPM) is often considered as something old, legacy or even deprecated. Although the concept itself started in the 2000s, the main goal of BPM is still valid today - cost-efficient business automation. The only thing which has changed is that today everybody, not only big enterprises with heavyweight monolithic applications, wants to be efficient, even small startups. We are quality engineers of Drools and jBPM, the rule and workflow engines of Red Hat. In this talk we will show you how our teams transformed these old projects into the cloud-native serverless microservices, something we call Kogito. We no longer speak about rule or workflow engines, we speak about decisions and functions. We will also describe how we use technologies like GraalVM and Quarkus to make that happen. Finally, there will also be a showcase of the full developer experience spanning from the design to the complete microservice running in the cloud.
