This application relates to a workflow execution system and method for processing and executing at least one node within a cloud environment. A process identity (ID) with respect to request message can be obtained to thereby identify a process definition from a deployment table of the workflow execution module. An instance with respect to the current process can be created for execution of the node of a workflow. An outgoing sequence flow with respect to the executing node can be obtained to thereby identify a target node identify (ID) with respect to the outgoing sequence flow of the node. A definition with respect to the executing node can be extracted from the process definition using the target node identify (ID) to thereby effectively execute the workflow within a cloud environment.
