Audit/History logs
To provide searchable historical data of the process executions, a specific component stores
the changes of the different process instances, its steps, and its variables. This information
is known as the history logs of the process engine.
Business Activity Monitoring
(
BAM
)
tools and dashboards are some of the most common clients for the information generated
by this component. They display different aggregations and compositions of that data to
different people (developers and business analysts, among others). It is heavily used during
state 5 (monitoring) of the BPM cycle.
Some common applications that can be created using these components are as follows:
• Real-time dashboards
• Data-mining or data-analysis tools
