Overcoming Camunda 7 Migration Challenges

Overcoming Camunda 7 Migration Challenges

Challenge

Equivalence, Time, and Cost Challenges

The client relied on a legacy Camunda 7 environment to run mission-critical business processes, including 21 complex workflows with approximately 20 activities each. These processes incorporated custom scripts, DMN tables, Java delegates, Groovy, and JavaScript scripts, along with BPMN elements. The client needed to transition these processes to the modern Camunda 8 platform to embrace cloud-native scalability and composability.

Solution

Seamless Process Transition with Exodus
CapBPM deployed Exodus, a proprietary, automated migration tool, to seamlessly transition the client’s processes to Camunda 8. Key steps included:

Process Conversion

Client operates large storage warehouses. Client needs to automate warehousing operations efficiently to improve productivity and minimize errors.

Testing Framework

Ensured equivalence by validating outputs using 50 randomly selected test cases.

Delegate and Listener Migration

Transitioned Java and Groovy delegates to asynchronous, event-driven job workers.

Accelerated Delivery

Leveraged Exodus to complete the majority of the migration in just 10 days, dedicating the remaining time to rigorous testing.

Result

Efficient Migration Success

Through a collaborative effort between the client and CapBPM:

The entire migration was completed in 30 days, far exceeding expectations.

All outputs from Camunda 7 and Camunda 8 were validated as identical, ensuring zero disruption to operations.

The client achieved a scalable, cloud-native, and future-proof architecture with Camunda 8. CapBPM’s expertise and Exodus tool enabled the client to meet their aggressive timeline with guaranteed success, ensuring their continued business growth and efficiency.

The Challenge

Managing Myriad Tasks for Regulatory Compliance

With a global network of stores, Client encountered the complex challenge of managing myriad tasks related to regulatory compliance.

Each location juggles diverse responsibilities such as data management, adhering to local and state regulations, maintaining electrical licenses, managing tax payments, and ensuring proper waste disposal, with tasks totaling around a thousand per store.

Streamlining and automating these compliance processes efficiently to ensure timely task execution, reporting, and escalations presents a significant challenge.

Solution

Implementation of Two Key Systems

CapBPM implemented two key systems.

Camunda Workflow Automation

Using Camunda, CapBPM automated regulatory compliance processes, enabling task management, reporting, and escalations. The new and improved flexibility of the system allowed real-time rule adjustments, accommodating changing regulations without manual intervention.

Camunda Expert System for Emergency Escalations

CapBPM team created an expert system to monitor store emergencies, differentiating between urgent and non-urgent issues. It monitored physical infrastructure, made decisions, and initiated escalations, optimizing actions based on predefined criteria and saving costs.

Result

Transformative Impact on the Business

Implementation of these systems had a transformative impact on the client’s operations. With workflow automation, greater efficiency in regulatory compliance was achieved, ensuring timely completion of tasks without manual oversight. Flexibility to adapt to changing regulations in real-time was a significant advantage.

Expert system for emergency escalations streamlined decision-making processes, helping save costs by making informed judgements on when to take immediate action and when to opt for more cost-effective solutions. System improved communication between key managers and on-site staff, providing clear task lists and facilitating a smooth resolution of issues.
