Sql Persistence and Tracking in Workflow

Hi Aaron,

Persistence data

Persistence data is a checkpoint of the state of an entire workflow saved at a point in the workflow. The value of persisting the workflow is that if anything happens to the server or runtime, the workflow can be restarted from the last checkpoint. Persistence is more valuable with long-running workflows, and the typical IT automation workflows created by Workflow Studio are less likely to need persistence. More information on persistence data can be found on the Note: None of the activities provided by Citrix with Workflow Studio create a persistence checkpoint. If you want to add a checkpoint to your workflows, the Delay Activity (provided by Microsoft) that is available in the Workflow Control folder will persist the workflow state.

Tracking data

Tracking data is a log of the workflow and the activities that make up the workflow. This data is a real-time record of what the workflow is doing as it executes.

Thanks.
