Transitioning from Integration and SOA to BPM
Stream:

Speakers:
Kim Clark
Abstract:
Many companies are looking to Business Process Management (BPM) to enable them to implement more agile solutions. We will consider how BPM can best to build on the ground work done in previous initiatives aimed at maturing the integration architecture of a company such as service oriented architecture (SOA). We will consider whether a BPM engine is a different from other service consumers such as user interfaces? Will you be able to re-use the services you have exposed in your service oriented architecture (SOA) to date? What additional characteristics might the service need to provide to be fit for use by an automated business process. We will use a proven structured approach to analysing the interface characteristics required by a BPM based service consumer using a technique from a recently published article co-written by the presenter. We will also discusses other mechanisms that can be used to help prepare the roadmap from integration and SOA, to BPM.
