Accessing Information and Applications
Using SOA to achieve agile and cost effective integration with enterprise systems
BPM automates business processes that span both people and system resources. To automate tasks that involve system resources, BPM software needs seamless access to the data and functionality in those systems.
SOA provides the most agile and cost effective way for BPM software to integrate with databases and applications.
- Improves business process agility by separating business and integration logic.
- Allows you to start small with a single business process and scale to support many processes.
- Business process model drives service orchestrations, ensuring that IT builds the right services.
- Re-use of existing service orchestrations increases business process agility and reduces cost of integration.
- Changes can be isolated to business process and integration logic to minimize impact.
- Dedicated integration product provides a more powerful and faster integration solution.
