A system and method are provided for executing process workflows. The method includes obtaining via a communications module, a representation of a workflow as a graph, the graph including a plurality of interconnected workflow tasks. The method also includes storing the graph in a graph database, navigating through the workflow tasks in the graph as the process is executed, and publishing via the communications module, a workflow state change with a topic for the current workflow task. The method also includes receiving via the communications module, a document for the current workflow task, wherein a state of the process is implied by the topic position in the graph, and wherein the topic determines at least one microservice to be employed. The method also includes having at least one workflow task associated with the current workflow task executed by instructing a corresponding one or more microservices via the communications module.
