13 Managing Processes

Process Orchestration is a design and execution service that enables process pipeline developers to implement pipelines modeled by business analysts. Process pipeline developers use this framework to orchestrate Run Pipelines within AFCS, and also to design the artifacts that are used in the pipelines.

The Process Modeller and the Process Monitor are two key parts of Process Orchestration. The Process Modeller is used to model pipelines. It aids in representing the various artifacts required for modeling and provides implementation details of the AFCS process artifacts. The Process Monitor is used to monitor instantiated pipelines of AFCS.

AFCS supports orchestration of the Run Pipeline, which is any orchestrated pipeline consisting of AFCS tasks and service calls that run within the AFCS context.
