+BPMN Project Deployment Strategy
+==================================
+
+Single Application with Embedded Process Engine
+------------------------------------------------
+
+Deployment in SO is currently limited to a single process application: MSOInfrastructureBPMN.  The WAR file for this application contains everything needed to execute the infrastructure process flows, including:
+
+  * BPMN process flows, java classes, groovy scripts, and resource files from MSOInfrastructureBPMN itself.
+
+  * BPMN process flows, java classes, groovy scripts, and resource files from other SO projects, like MSOCommonBPMN and MSOCoreBPMN.
+
+  * An embedded Camunda Process Engine to execute the flows.
+
+The process application exposes a REST endpoint to the API Handler(s) for receiving flow execution requests.
+
+Development is required in SO to be able to support one a more versatile deployment strategy, probably one of the following:
+
+Shared Process Engine
+----------------------
+
+The Camunda Process Engine is created and manged as a Wildfly module.  This single engine is shared by all process applications.
+
+Multiple Applications, each with an Embedded Process Engine
+-------------------------------------------------------------
+
+More than one application could be deployed, each having its own embedded process engine.
