Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for resolving conflicts between workflows in a workflow processing system. A plurality of workflows stored in a workflow queue are evaluated to identify a common dependency of the plurality of workflows. Then, a version hierarchy is created for the common dependency of the plurality of workflows, the version hierarchy identifying multiple versions of the common dependency. In response to execution of a first one of the plurality of workflows stored in the workflow queue, the version hierarchy can be evaluated to identify the most recent version of the common dependency. Then, installation of the most recent version of the common dependency can be initiated.

Abstract: Disclosed are various embodiments for managing the state of client devices using device-driven management workflows. A computing device can be evaluated to determine the current state of the computing device. Then, the current state of the computing device is compared to an expected state of the computing device. The expected state of the computing device may be based at least in part on a result of execution of at least one device-driven management workflow by the computing device. In response to a determination that the current state of the computing device fails to match the expected state of the computing device, the device-driven management workflow can be executed to resolve the discrepancy between the expected state and the current state.
