Publisher's Synopsis
jBPM5 is a powerful, new open-source technology that takes a new approach to managing business process workflow. As the product is so cutting edge and there are few available resources to those who wish to use jBPM in their environments, A Practical Guide to jBPM5 by Venkataganesh Thoppae is invaluable as a resource.
Thoppae's book is a simple, quick-start guide that anyone with basic understanding of Java, JEE, JBoss, Maven, MySQL (or any RDBMS), and eclipse will be able to understand and put to use immediately.
The author notes that the book is not to be considered a "Bible" for jBPM5, but rather a companion to more in-depth books on the topic. Thoppae eschews detail and foundational philosophies for the nuts and bolts basics to get you up and running without costly lag time.
The book is well organized with real-life examples of how jBPM5 works in the business process workflow environment. Easy-to-understand screenshots accompany each aspect of the how-to explanations, making the steps easy to put into play.
A Practical Guide to jBPM5 will be an invaluable tool in making this new tool work for you.
