Guys,
With Prova (
http://www.prova.ws) reaching ever closer to version 2.0 and its build now based on Maven 2.0, it is easier for us to extend the rule-based workflow example I did before. I'm adding examples that demonstrate various workflow patterns (see
http://www.workflowpatterns.com/) to the module released before.
I will demonstrate that Prova rulesets deployed as components on the Mule bus can successfully replace most of the BPEL functionality while adding non-determinism, unification, and reasoning capabilities of rules. Such rulesets will be able to orchestrate services accessible via any Mule transports, not just web services as in BPEL.
I'll post a link here to a Maven 2 distribution shortly. We will be exploring a more interesting realistic use case after this groundwork is done.
Alex
