Open standards

Valtimo is based on open standards for business process automation:

Business Process Model and Notation (BPMN) is a standardized method for visually representing business processes in a clear and structured way. It is widely used in process management and automation to document, analyze, and optimize workflows. BPMN uses flowchart-style diagrams with standardized symbols to depict tasks, decisions, events, and interactions within a business process.

Decision Model and Notation (DMN) is a standardized method for modeling and automating business decisions. It provides a visual and structured way to define rules and logic, ensuring that decision-making is transparent, consistent, and easily understood by both business and IT teams. DMN is often used alongside BPMN to separate decision logic from business processes.

CloudEvents is an open standard for describing event data in a common format, making it easier to share and process events across different cloud platforms, services, and applications. It provides a standardized structure for event metadata, ensuring interoperability between event-driven systems.

OpenAPI is a standardized specification for defining and documenting RESTful APIs in a machine-readable format. It allows developers to describe API endpoints, request and response formats, authentication methods, and other details in a structured way, making APIs easier to understand, use, and integrate.
