GotSpeech.NET

Hello Everone,

 

This is my first post here, I'm relatively new to Speech Server, I have only worked on three Speech Server related projects and I was researching some topics and i was hoping to get some help here.

 My understanding is that Speech Uses the IIS to host all the Code Managed applications, however, I don't understand where the Workflows are hosted? is the Speech Server the host for these workflows? What if i want to have a non-speech workflow that includes a small speech application? So my problem is basically with the general understanding of how the Managed Code applications behave as a workflow on the Speech Server Environment.

 Any help is really appreciated and if you know of any links or articles that would help answer my questions i will be really grateful.

IIS hosts Speech Server and Speech Server hosts Speech Workflows.  You can only host Speech Workflows in Speech Server; so if you have a non-speech workflow that wants to make a call, you need to tell Speech Server to load a separate speech workflow.  Look up triggering an outbound call for how to do this (you can issue a HTTP POST or go via MSMQ).

Thanks Anthony, I have a question though, now where do I host the non-speech workflow ? I should have my own host for it is that right?

That depends what you want to do in the non-speech workflow.  You can use generic activities in a speech workflow, so one option would be to put your non-speech logic into the speech workflow.

Well the problem is that the logic might include waiting for people to approve stuff and i don't need the workflow to be loaded into the memory all this time because it might take a day or two for the approval to take place.

Yep, that would be an inappropriate use of SpeechServer, which isn't designed for multi-day workflows.
