SOA Needs
Agility BPM™
SOA is an architectural style for developing distributed systems. It enables loose coupling of services and flexibility. It allows for services to be modified with no impact on the consumer. Services support reuse, and can help preserve and extend the value stored in legacy systems by making their capabilities more widely available.
SOA is a great way to make IT more responsive in development, but it is fundamentally an internal tactical IT initiative. As a result, pure SOA approaches often fail to deliver value, as they lack connection to current business needs.
Agility BPM™ on the other hand provides the bridge between business goals and IT solutions. It provides a platform for directly implementing the services provided by the SOA Team into the strategic business processes in terms that business users understand. The business process consists of a sequence of tasks, some automated and others performed by people. Agility BPM™ allows for modeling, simulation, execution, monitoring and most importantly, continuous process improvement. It brings together and coordinates the activities and decision making of people with the systems' data and transaction services.
SOA is clearly the best current architecture for execution of the services that interface with external resources. The role of Agility BPM™ is to coordinate and monitor the execution of the entire process, including the individual tasks. This is necessary in order to keep your systems from becoming just another monolithic application.
Agility BPM™ offers a simple and efficient way to establish, operate, manage, and monitor business processes in a web environment or as a Windows desktop application.
Achieving better business resource optimization through improved processes is a top issue for organizations today. Whether your objectives are to reduce costs, improve productivity, increase compliance, enhance business agility or reduce risks, Agility BPM™ provides a comprehensive and flexible Business Process Management (BPM) solution. Agility BPM™ allows you to quickly implement, manage, monitor and analyze improved business processes.
It's a given that business processes will constantly evolve due to both organizational factors (e.g., changing workforce, competitive realities, and business objectives) and technological factors (e.g., new capabilities and new applications). In order to continuously to align people with evolving processes to maintain or improve worker effectiveness, organizations need a ”business process platform” that supports rapid change and creates agile applications.
