• Related to: business-process-management, workflow-automation

Cons

• Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case

Event Driven Process Chain

Developers should learn EPC when working on business process automation, ERP implementations (especially SAP), or projects requiring clear documentation of organizational workflows

Pros

• Related to: business-process-modeling, sap

Cons

• Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
