A BPMN (Business Process Model and Notation) diagram is a standardized flowchart method used to visually map out end-to-end business workflows. Maintained by the Object Management Group (OMG), BPMN 2.0 provides a universal language that bridges the gap between business analysts who design processes and software engineers who implement or automate them. Unlike general flowcharts, BPMN...Read More
When building high-throughput systems with asynchronous background workers, one of the most common architecture traps is the Time-of-Check to Time-of-Use (TOCTOU) race condition. If your backend publishes events to a message queue (like RabbitMQ) and you scale out workers horizontally to consume those events, you introduce parallelism. Without proper guarantees, parallelism breaks idempotency—leading to duplicate records,...Read More
