Case Study: NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory achieves streamlined multi-mission operations with Camunda

NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Using Camunda for JPL Common Workflow Service (

The NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), managed by Caltech for NASA and responsible for building and operating planetary spacecraft and the Deep Space Network, needed a way to coordinate and automate complex, cross‑mission operational workflows. To address that challenge, JPL adopted Camunda—using Camunda’s workflow/process orchestration capabilities to support multiple missions and standardize mission processes.

Camunda implemented a process automation solution to orchestrate mission workflows, integrate disparate systems, and reduce manual handoffs across teams. As a result, JPL achieved more consistent, scalable operations and improved coordination across missions; the case study notes JPL’s use of Camunda for multiple missions and was featured in a Camunda Community Day presentation, though specific quantitative impact figures were not provided in the source material.
