BPMN Project Deployment Strategy
==================================
Single Application with Embedded Process Engine
------------------------------------------------
Deployment in SO is currently limited to a single process application: MSOInfrastructureBPMN. The WAR file for this application contains everything needed to execute the infrastructure process flows, including:
* BPMN process flows, java classes, groovy scripts, and resource files from MSOInfrastructureBPMN itself.
* BPMN process flows, java classes, groovy scripts, and resource files from other SO projects, like MSOCommonBPMN and MSOCoreBPMN.
* An embedded Camunda Process Engine to execute the flows.
The process application exposes a REST endpoint to the API Handler(s) for receiving flow execution requests.
Development is required in SO to be able to support one a more versatile deployment strategy, probably one of the following:
Shared Process Engine
----------------------
The Camunda Process Engine is created and manged as a Wildfly module. This single engine is shared by all process applications.
Multiple Applications, each with an Embedded Process Engine
-------------------------------------------------------------
More than one application could be deployed, each having its own embedded process engine.
