Business Management White Papers

IBM WebSphere BPM Suite

Overview IBM occupies a unique spot in the BPMS vendor landscape: It is the first (and, so far, only) infrastructure software supplier to offer a complete BPMS - supporting the end-to-end lifecycle from analytical modeling to performance management and optimization - based entirely on Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA). IBM has a long history in the traditionally distinct markets for workflow, application integration, and performance management software, and is today leading the charge toward enterprise transformation through SOA. Business process management is only one style of business integration supported IBM's strategic SOA initiative. WebSphere Process Server and its associated design tools are aimed more broadly at SOA developers building composite applications on WebSphere.
