Orchestration, Choreography, and Complex Workflows

Complex workflows can be categorized into technical and business workflows that require different approaches. Technical workflows involve actions like generating a PDF and storing it in a database, while business workflows focus on processes such as supervisor approval for employee absence. To manage complex workflows effectively, it is important to break them down into manageable components and consider failure conditions and the need for compensation. Examples from academia highlight scenarios such as transferring money between accounts as intricate workflows that require careful orchestration or choreography to ensure successful execution.
