Service-oriented integration scenarios

Process integration: The process integration pattern extends the 1: N topology of the broker pattern. It simplifies the serial execution of business services, which are provided by the target applications.
Workflow integration: The workflow integration pattern is a variant of the serial process pattern. It extends the capability of simple serial process orchestration to include support for user interaction in the execution of individual process steps.

In the scenario shown in the following diagram, the process integration business pattern is implemented using BPEL.
Trigger:
An application places a message in the queue.
Primary flow:
1. The message is extracted from the queue through JMS and a corresponding JMS adapter.
2. A new instance of...
