Workflow
Rocket Fuel

Workflows are made for business users. The main purpose is to model your data processes and so they become a privileged tool to interact with the data. Secondly, they are created using the BPMN standard. This widely used graphical representation is made to model business processes. Thus, not only developers can build workflows. A business operator can, too. Finally, the integrated user interface is easy to use. Composed of standard input fields, they are intuitive to complete and don’t need any particular training.

Workflows run in an engine built into the Data Governance Center. Every user task is attached to a data resource (asset, domain, community) and thus is completed in a specific data context. Every script runs in the same environment as the Data Platform.

These three facts make the workflows the closest customizable way to interact with your data. And this, without encroaching on security!

Workflows configuration is part of the Settings menu. There, you can choose on which resources a workflow can be applied, when it should be triggered and with which parameter.

Then, each user tasks can be configured to be completed by a given user, a group of user or a role.

Finally, the script tasks allow you to configure how you want the data to be treated, transformed, stored, and so on.

Workflows can trigger or be triggered by other workflows. This means you can build complex processes out of much simpler ones.
