Introduction
With the availability of Windows Workflow Foundation (WF), Microsoft is introducing workflow capabilities to the .NET
developer platform. These capabilities allow developers to build workflows to meet a wide number of scenarios, from
simple sequential workflows plex state machine-based workflows with sophisticated human interactions.
At the same time, there is a move towards promoting business capabilities to be exposed through encapsulated service
endpoints allowing reuse position of business functions and processes giving rise to Service-Oriented
Architectures. munication Foundation (WCF) has been made available to help provide developers with
capabilities to develop connected systems easily by providing a consistent developer API, a robust hosting runtime, and a
flexible config
