Camunda Platform 7 - The open source BPMN platform
Camunda Platform 7 is a flexible framework for workflow and process automation. Its core is a native BPMN 2.0 process engine that runs inside the Java Virtual Machine. It can be embedded inside any Java application and any Runtime Container. It integrates with Java EE 6 and is a perfect match for the Spring Framework. On top of the process engine, you can choose from a stack of tools for human workflow management, operations and monitoring.

A Framework
In contrast to other vendor BPM platforms, Camunda Platform 7 strives to be highly integrable and embeddable. We seek to deliver a great experience to developers that want to use BPM technology in their projects.
Highly Integrable
Out of the box, Camunda Platform 7 provides infrastructure-level integration with Java EE Application Servers and Servlet Containers.
Embeddable
Most of the components that make up the platform can even be completely embedded inside an application. For instance, you can add the process engine and the REST API as a library to your application and assemble your custom BPM platform configuration.
