Disclosed are some implementations of systems, apparatus, methods and computer program products for executing a process flow represented by a graph or portion thereof using cached subgraphs. A first request to execute a first portion of a process flow is processed, where the first portion of the process flow is represented by a first subgraph of a graph representing the process flow and a final node of the first subgraph corresponds to a set of computer-readable instructions. The first portion of the process flow is executed such that a first output of executing the first portion of the process flow is obtained. The first subgraph is stored in association with the first output in a first cache entry of a cache. A second request to execute a second portion of the process flow is processed, where the second portion of the process flow is represented by a second subgraph of the graph. At least one cache entry for which a corresponding subgraph matches at least a portion of the second subgraph is identified in the cache, where the at least one cache entry includes the first cache entry. The first output is retrieved from the first cache entry, a node of the second subgraph to which the final node of the first subgraph is connected is identified, and the second portion of the process flow is executed by providing the first output as input to the identified node of the second subgraph without executing the set of computer-readable instructions.
