Powerful

COPPER is a high-performance workflow engine and comprises key features such as

  • automatic crash recovery
  • dynamic resource allocation
  • hot deployment
  • versioning
  • long running workflows (months or more)
  • features to support high availability (having a Apache Cassandra or Oracle RAC database)

When designing COPPER, we put the main focus on performance and reliability.

Java based

Use the language you know best!

In contrast to many other Java-based workflow engines, it is not only written in 100% pure Java but it also uses Java for workflow definitions.

Plus, you can dynamically modify workflows at runtime due to its automatic class reloading!

COPPER 5.5.0 runs with Java 8 to 23. Java 7 is supported by COPPER 4.x.
