Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for providing high-load business process scalability in cloud-based infrastructures. One process includes operations for receiving a message at a first computer node executing a first business process instance. A second business process instance associated with the message is identified. The message is sent to a messaging queue for retrieval by the second business process instance if the second business process instance is not located at the first computer node.

Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamic parallel looping in process runtime environment are described herein. A currently processed process-flow instance of a business process reaches a dynamic loop activity including a repetitive task to be executed with each loop cycle. A predefined expression is evaluated on top of the current data context of the process-flow instance to discover a number of loop cycles for execution within the dynamic loop activity. A number of parallel activities corresponding to the repetitive task recurrences are instantiated and executed in parallel. The results of the parallel activities are coordinated to confirm that the dynamic loop activity is completed.

Abstract: Systems and methods for adding services to an application platform via an extension platform coupled to the application platform. The application platform runs in a first operation system process and provides a number of resources. The extension platform is implemented in a second operation system process and communicates with the application platforms via standard inter-process communication protocols. The extension platform provides an environment to dynamically model and host application services. A resource abstraction layer provides the extension platform with access to the resources provided at the application platform. The resources are utilized by the extension platform to design and to execute the application services. The application services hosted in the extension platform are centrally managed and administered from the application platform via exposed interfaces.

Abstract: The present disclosure involves systems, software, and computer implemented methods for reducing transaction load for process instance completion. One process includes identifying an end event triggered by an initial token of a process instance, determining a type of the end event, performing a search for additional tokens associated with the process instance that are distinct from the initial token, and performing a termination action based on the type of end event and a number of additional tokens identified in the search. The end event type may be non-terminating or terminating, and the end event type can determine the termination action to be performed. If the end event is non-terminating, then the termination action includes joining each finalization action for each process instance variable to a completion transaction if no additional tokens are found and executing the completion transaction to terminate the process instance.
