I analyzed multiple real production failures — these were the actual causes

Not bugs.
Not syntax errors.
Not even business logic.

Most failures came from misunderstanding how workflow engines execute internally.

So I wrote a set of deep dives covering:

Why asyncBefore / asyncAfter freezes processes

When Job Executor is better than External Task

Transaction boundaries (the most misunderstood concept)

DMN testing strategies nobody teaches

Docker vs Kubernetes config mistakes

Spring Boot environment variables breaking in cloud

BPMN error handling best practices

If you work with Camunda / BPM / microservices — this will save debugging days.

Let’s discuss:
What was the hardest bug you debugged in workflow systems?
