I think that for most part, the two would be orthogonal.
Workflow system can use JAX-RS as base for exposing itself, as well as
be a client using a JAX-RS - powered service.
But as a client, there is nothing particular special about
JAX-RS/Jersey, in that it would be Yet Another Rest(-like/-style) web
service to use; so this would be more of a question for workflow
system, whether it can access REST services.

Or am I missing some part of the question?
