Creating a Parallel Flow

You can create a parallel flow in a BPEL process service component with the flow activity. The flow activity enables you to specify one or more activities to be performed concurrently. The flow activity also provides synchronization. The flow activity completes when all activities in the flow have finished processing. Completion of this activity includes the possibility that it can be skipped if its enabling condition is false.

Note:

Branches in a flow activity are executed serially in a single thread. For more information, see What You May Need to Know About the Execution of Parallel Flow Branches in a Single Thread.
