Informatica recommends that you migrate to the business entity-based ActiveVOS workflow adapter. The Siperian workflow adapter is deprecated. Informatica will continue to support the deprecated adapter, but it will become obsolete and Informatica will drop support in a future release. The MDM Hub supports a primary workflow engine and a secondary workflow engine. You can migrate from the Siperian workflow adapter to the business entity-based ActiveVOS workflow adapter.
