I would've thought ACC would also provide that parallel execution just like Unica (it's quite common/expected tbh). There could be multiple use cases, for eg: Fork spawning 3 branches in the order below
a) labelled Heavy (takes roughly 30 mins to complete) and then finally outputs an email delivery and ends.
b) labelled Moderate (takes roughly 15 mins to complete) and then finally outputs another mail delivery (to a different set of customers) and ends.
c) labelled Light (takes 2 mins to complete) and then finally outputs to another email delivery (to a different set of customers) and ends.
If having this executed in sequence, although (c) can complete within seconds, it has to wait until (b) is completed, which in turn has to wait for 30 mins for (a) to complete. Furthermore, if (a) fails for any reason, chances are the entire workflow could go into the Paused state leaving (b) & (c) incomplete/hanging for not so good reasons.
