Dynamic parallel branch

Hi

Guys any ideas on how I can implement dynamic parallel branch in
orchestration?
The problem is I've x number of long running activities; how many; I
don't know until runtime;
I can't use a Loop as loop is synchronous and it waits for first
iteration to complete
so I need a parallel shape but I want to add the branch dynamically

Thanks

Vishy

Hello Vishy,
The Parallel branch isnt necessarily asynchronous. So the best thing to
try to do is to kick of N orchestrations using the StartOrchestration shape
(have a loop which uses the start orchestration shape). That will be async.
