BPM Integration Days February 26th & 27th 2015 in Munich Germany

image Am 26. bis 27. Februar 2015 präsentiert das Business Technology Magazin die BPM & Integration Days 2015 in München.
Vier der bekanntesten deutschsprachigen BPM-Profis – Torsten Winterberg, Danilo Schmiedel und Dr. Marcus Winteroll zeigen Ihnen in diesem Trainingsevent Schritt für Schritt wie Sie prozessorientierte IT-Lösungen optimal entwickeln und aktuelle Standards ef­fizient einsetzen.

Das erwartet Sie!
Im Laufe der beiden Trainingstage wird der komplette Lebenszyklus eines Projekts zur Geschäftsprozessautomatisierung beispielhaft vermittelt werden. Beginnend mit der Anforderungsaufnahme, wird im weiteren Verlauf aufgezeigt, welche Lösungsanteile am besten mit der BPMN 2.0 umgesetzt werden können und in welchen Fällen Ansätze aus dem Adaptive Case Management zum Einsatz kommen.
Klar de­finierte Abläufe werden mithilfe der BPMN 2.0 (Business Process Model and Notation) zur Ausführung gebracht, flexible zu gestaltende Geschäftsprozesse mittels der CMMN (Case Management Model and Notation). Abgerundet wird das Training durch eine Vorstellung der DMN (Decision Model and Notation), um die Struktur von Entscheidungen zu analysieren, die im Laufe der Geschäftsprozesse zu treffen sind. Nachdem alle nötigen Grundlagen gelegt sind, erklären die Trainer mithilfe verschiedener BPM-Plattformen wie camunda sowie Oracle BPM Suite, wie alle erstellten Modelle in lauffähige, prozessbasierte Software gegossen werden.
An wen richtet sich das Training?
Das Trainingsevent richtet sich an alle, die in prozessbasierten IT-Projekten an Lösungsstrukturen arbeiten, also vorrangig an Softwarearchitekten, Entwickler und Modellierer, aber auch an Systemanalytiker, die mit ihren Entwicklern besser kommunizieren wollen. Das Training ist zudem für Projektmanager geeignet, da sie so Gründe und Methoden für Strukturentscheidungen kennen lernen und somit ihre Teams optimal aufstellen können.


Alle Details finden Sie auf www.bpm-integration-days.de. Haben Sie Fragen oder Wünsche an uns? Senden Sie uns bitte eine E-Mail an info@entwickler-akademie.de oder rufen Sie uns an unter +49 (0)30 2148066-50
Wir wünschen Ihnen ein besinnliches Weihnachtsfest und einen guten Rutsch ins neue Jahr!

Internet of Things – The Oracle platform by Torsten Winterberg

IoT will be the next game changer. We’re entering a world, where Billions of devices will be able to play in role in higher level processes. There will be many more machines using our todays internet than humans will do. This is a summary of an Openworld session on Oracle IoT strategy.

IoT Definition from Wikipedia:
Equipping all objects in the world with minuscule identifying devices could be transformative of daily life. For instance, business may no longer run out of stock or generate waste products, as involved parties would know which products are required and consumed. One’s ability to interact with objects could be altered remotely based on immediate or present needs, in accordance with existing  end-user agreements.

Some major challenges have to be addressed:

  • Complex value chain
  • Lack of standardization to build, deploy & manage IoT applications
  • No consistency in managing security of data and identity of devices
  • Need to analyze Fast data in real time
  • No integration platform to convert data into business automation

Oracle launched their Iot platform at Openworld 2013 with this focus:

  • Standardize application development for devices, enterprise, web and mobile apps
  • Analyze IoT data to achieve real-time visibility
  • Integrate IoT data with enterprise applications & cloud infrastructure
  • Secure data & identity across devices and enterprise data center

SOA Blueprint: A Toolbox for Architects – article at OTN and Service Technology Magazine

image32

this article introduces the foundations that need to be established in order to implement functional SOA processes. Rather than presenting specific tools, we will define a broadly applicable SOA blueprint whose individual modules can be topped up with commercial products or increasingly available open
source offerings.

A Company Blueprint

Upon examination of Figure 1, the vision of adaptive enterprise computing is illustrated as a meta-blueprint for the overall company with three differentiated levels:

  • Infrastructure Level – This level is formed by databases, storage systems, application servers, and all other IT resources that are required to run IT systems.
  • Application System Level – This level houses entire applications, both individual applications and standard software, as well as services relating to SOA, workflow and BPM systems.
  • Process Management Level – Functional requirements are manifested in the process design and then implemented at the lower levels.

Figure 1An advanced service-oriented architecture is the most effective option for implementing the functional requirements at the application-system level. The more superior the mapping of existing business services to the functional steps in process models is, the more the business-IT gap shrinks.

Various back-coupling loops represent the actual added value of this meta-blueprint, meaning consistent usage of services and technical processes enables the measuring of KPIs. This in turn facilitates process control and ultimately the optimization of processes. The more progress a company makes in implementing their SOA, the greater and faster are the effects to be achieved for adaptive
enterprise computing. … read the full article here

Industrial SOA article at OTN and Service Technology Magazine

image3SOA and service-orientation have laid the foundation for a variety of emergent service technology innovations, while the original building blocks of SOA and service-orientation continue to evolve by embracing fundamental service technologies, concepts and practices. These new technology innovations do not replace service-orientation; they use it as their basis.

Service-orientation continues to evolve towards a factory approach, towards industrializing integrated platforms, such as BI, master data management (MDM), mobile front-ends, BPM, adaptive processes, Big Data and Cloud Computing – all of which add architectural layers upon SOA-based infrastructure. All of these technologies can interface via standardized data and functions, published as service contracts, in order to avoid redundancy – that’s service-orientation. Let’s take a closer look. The amount of data, which companies produce and store tends to grow on an on-going basis. This includes structured data (for example, from ERP systems or data warehouses), as well as unstructured data (for example, from e-mails). With the rise of social media services like twitter, Facebook, Pinterest and the emphasis on Customer Experience Management, the amount of data and data sources has increased dramatically. To integrate all of these data sources through an SOA-approach is essential. The models, principles and patterns behind SOA and service-orientation can be applied to formalize interoperability between… read the full article here

BPM 11g PS6 greatest things are the improved web based development experience with process composer- Torsten Winterberg, OPITZ CONSULTING

OPITZ CONSULTING is already using Oracle BPM Suite 11g in several successful projects. We wereimage very pleased to see the investment Oracle is putting into this tooling, with PS6 being more a major release than just a patch set. We took part in the PS6 beta program and therefore had the chance to test all the new functionality in detail. Greatest things are the improved web based development experience with process composer, which became much more mature. Player is a great feature to quickly understand modeling consequences. Most important for us are the new case management features. A bunch of customers is waiting for this new level in bpm projects – interesting times are ahead. Torsten Winterberg, OPITZ CONSULTING
