Does adding a workflow generator to enforce business process message flow seriously impact overall performance?
As I understand it, whereas when A previously sent to B across an ESB, it now sends to the Workflow Generator which determines based on content and BPEL, whether it needs to send to B (and maybe D as well). Good news … A is decoupled from the folks receiving its messages. Bad news … the Workflow Generator appears to be a single point of failure for the enterprise, and the message traffic is effectively doubled. Is this assumption correct? If not, how is the knowledge of where the message should go next decentralized from the Workflow Generator? I’ve used the BPMN tools and realized I was hazy on “what went on under the sheets”. Any help on this one much appreciated.
