Today companies think and deal in business processes. Classical IT architectures deal with this way of thinking in-part only. Therefore companies must make large expenditures in order to introduce IT systems which support the planned business processes.
The expenditure generally becomes larger if companies adapt their IT systems, since they must make changes to existing business processes. In contrast to this, a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) is based directly on the descriptions of the business processes. The business processes are realized through services which are independent of each other and loosely coupled. In addition, all data items can be collated, which monitor and optimize the business processes (Business Activity Monitoring).
With the WfMCore solution, Danet offers the optimal basis for a process-based IT architecture. The solution can not only call up services, but also applications over interfaces, integrate queues etc. In addition, WfMCore supports manual interactions.
An open source version (GPL) of WfMCore is available for evaluation and internal use under the name WfMOpen.
