The workflow service is a Nirva service that implements the logic of workflow scenarios for managing  long running transactions.
6 1 Pierre Marc
The Nirva workflow service helps to architect an application from a business point of view. The workflow supports the business logic that is coded into activities. This business viewpoint only displays the different activities, their status and how they are organized together to meet requirements.
7 1 Pierre Marc
The service provides all the environment and functionality to control workflow processes and their various states. The execution of the activities is not part of the workflow and remains controlled by Nirva applications by using standard Nirva features. As usual, Nirva provides all the necessary functionality to start and run activities directly or in the background, scheduled or not, to wait for events, to send and receive messages, etc.

This allows the sharing of a complex business process on different servers, optionally having dedicated servers for some activities.  The processing of some workflow activities can also be controlled by external software that can communicate with the Nirva workflow using client connectors.
