FAQQuestions
What is the BIAN “Process” functional pattern?
A Process service domain executes and tracks a defined operational procedure, step by step, to completion. Customer Billing applies it to the Customer Bill.
What is a BIAN service domain?
BIAN (the Banking Industry Architecture Network) decomposes a bank into independent service domains, each owning exactly one business capability. Customer Billing is the service domain for Account Management; it manages the Customer Bill Procedure and exposes it through standard BIAN action terms.
What business area does Customer Billing belong to?
Customer Billing sits in the Operations and Execution business area — the operational core that executes payments, positions, settlements and transactions. It runs in the bian-operations namespace as one independent Spring Boot microservice.
Is Customer Billing production-ready?
It is an educational reference implementation: a real BIAN REST API over an in-memory store, ready to be filled with domain logic. It is not a live bank and is not affiliated with BIAN.
