METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVISIONING WORKFLOWS WITH PROACTIVE DATA TRANSFORMATION
Techniques described herein relate to a method for provisioning workflows with data transformation services. The method may include receiving, by a platform controller associated with a first domain, workflow information associated with a portion of a workflow to be deployed in a device ecosystem, where the portion of the workflow includes a first subportion of the workflow; identifying an output intent associated with data of the first subportion of the workflow; making a first determination that the output intent is associated with a data transformation of the data; making a second determination that the first domain is able to perform the data transformation; and establishing data transformation services using resources of the first domain; and initiating performance of the first subportion of the workflow, where executing the first subportion of the workflow includes executing the data transformation services.

identifying an output intent associated with data of the first subportion of the workflow;
making a first determination that the output intent is associated with a data transformation of the data; and
in response to the first determination:
making a second determination that the first domain is able to perform the data transformation;
in response to the second determination:
establishing data transformation services using resources of the first domain; and
initiating performance of the first subportion of the workflow, wherein executing the first subportion of the workflow comprises executing the data transformation services.
