What Can SOA Do For You?: Integration, BPM
Prolifics University '08 kicks off with a bang featuring IBM's Vice President of SOA and WebSphere Marketing, Strategy and Channels,
Sandy Carter, as she weaves together business drivers and their influence on SOA, BPM, and Connectivity. SOA can provide tremendous
benefits to your business, but it starts with a vision in order to unleash its potential.
Is enterprise integration one of your IT objectives? Join us on Monday to learn how SOA can transform your business processes and
drive integration of systems and applications, enabling collaboration for your employees, partners and customers.
Does your organization want to implement business process management?
The goal of BPM enabled by SOA is not just to design and automate a business process, but to create processes designed for continuous optimization,
driven by a continuous feedback loop, with tools and capabilities to support collaboration across multiple business and
IT stakeholders within your organization. BPM enabled by SOA includes broad capabilities to interconnect touch points
across the entire end-to-end processes that include diverse systems, extensive human interaction, and broad uses of content, data and information.
