Maximizing ROI through BPM with Enterprise SOA

Enterprise Service Oriented Architecture (Enterprise SOA)
In the world of business applications, standards-based efforts are gaining momentum. Web services implementations are growing as users migrate to the middleware that enables and simplifies Web application-to-application connectivity. In addition, users are warming to the idea of a service-oriented architecture (SOA) to connect applications across a network in a way that fosters code sharing and reuse. SOA is an application topology in which the business logic of the application is organized in Modules/Services with clear identity, purpose and Programmatic Interfaces. Services are black boxes and their internal design is independent of the nature and purpose of the requestor The Data and the business logic are encapsulated in modular business components and this clarifies design and facilitates incrementental development and future extensions.

SOA is an enterpirse concept and strategy, not a technology or a tactical solution. Oraganzations must implement an enterpise-level approach to reap the benefits of SOA. This can be achieved by best practices like (a)Create an enterprise SOA Group (b) Manage Reuse of business processes (c) Control Redundancy (d) Develop SOA Compentency within the organization.

Enterprise SOA is a blueprint for an adaptable, flexible, and open IT architecture for developing services-based, enterprise-scale business solutions. With SAP NetWeaver as a technical foundation, enterprise SOA moves IT architectures to higher levels of adaptability - and moves companies closer to the vision of real-time enterprises by elevating Web services to an enterprise level.

An enterprise service is typically a series of Web services combined with business logic that can be accessed and used repeatedly to support a particular business process. Aggregating Web services into business-level enterprise services provides a more meaningful foundation for the task of automating enterprise-scale business scenarios.

Business Process Management (BPM)
Business process management (BPM) is a method of efficiently aligning an organization with the wants and needs of customer. It is a holistic management approach that promotes business effectiveness and efficiency while striving for innovation, flexibility and integration with technology. As organizations strive for attainment of their objectives, BPM attempts to continuously improve processes - the process to define, measure and improve your processes - a 'process optimization' process

The activities which constitute business process management can be grouped into five categories: 1)design 2) modeling 3)execution 4) monitoring 5) optimization.

Business process management (BPM) is implemented as part of service-oriented architecture (SOA), the business and IT benefits can be substantial.Narbhavee believes that a central benefit of service-oriented architectures is that it can help companies implement business process management strategies effectively, giving companies the agility they need to remain competitive. Narbhavee has created a straightforward strategy to help clients get started with a solution based on business process management, an approach that combines these principles with service-oriented architecture-linking business and IT to accelerate value creation.

Experts at Narbhavee Infotech can design, develop and implement end-to-end Business Process Management and Enterpise SOA technology using webMethods Cross Vison and SAP Netweaver ESOA.
