Microservices

With the Flowfactory platform you can center your development approach around APIs, opening up for a Microservices architecture. Create a smaller set of independant Flowfactory services or break down a existing application into a set of microservices.

In Flowfactory GO there is now a Microservice project type that you can use as a starting point for your services.

With this project type you get a studio that is tailored for supporting a Microservice architecture. Functions and UI is focused on integrations, contract modelling and business logic making the step to using microservices even simpler.

Workflow Builder improvements

The workflow builder is the tool where you build your business logic.

We have made some big improvements in this area giving developers a more efficient work environment

Configuration of activities and activity branches are now shown as a sidebar in the workflow builder. This gives the developer a better overview of the workflow and reduces number of clicks and loading times.

Quick access to help sections for all workflow activities are now accessible directly from the studio.

Simplified Application links

When publishing test instances and customer applications the application is assigned a unique id. Before this release this id has been part of your applications link but we have now added the option to set a unique sub domain name for your application instance.

This means that your application links will be easier to remember, share and access from other systems and services.

To set a sub domain name you open the instance details and add the name for your application.
