The Apache ODE team is pleased to announce the release of Apache ODE 1.3.5. It includes performance improvements and bug fixes. Apache ODE is a WS-BPEL compliant web services orchestration engine. It organizes web services calls following a process description written in the BPEL XML grammar. Another way to describe it would be a web-service capable workflow engine.
Highlights of this release: * Performance improvements make XPath 2.0 processing in assign activities or transition conditions up to 10 times faster than with ODE 1.3.4. * Support for ServiceMix 4.3 * Improved process deployment via OSGi on ServiceMix 4.x In addition to these new features, Apache ODE provides the following functionalities: * Side-by-side support for both the WS-BPEL 2.0 OASIS standard and the legacy BPEL4WS 1.1 vendor specification. * Supports 2 communication layers: one based on Axis2 (Web Services http transport) and another one based on the JBI standard (using ServiceMix). * High level API to the engine that allows you to integrate the core with virtually any communication layer. * Hot-deployment of your processes. * Compiled approach to BPEL that provides detailed analysis and validation at the command line or at deployment. * Management interface for processes, instances and messages. * Process execution based on a high-performance virtual machine.
