Process modeling

AWS business process modeling tool is a process modeling and design tool based on BPMN standard, which supports XPDL2.0 standard process XML model and BPEL standard. Business analysts and technical developers can collaborate in the design environment at the same time. The process modeling method of AWS platform provides two bi-directional compatible tools based on pure Web and client Studio. No matter which tool you use, you can always connect to the running server for version management and online optimization of the running model.

AWS process modeling can support top-down and in-depth modeling methods, not only support BPM model of process execution, but also use modeling tools to sort out enterprise value chain, process domain, flow chart and sub-process from the perspective of business operators, and then form enterprise process combing model and execution model.

Application modeling

There are two main ways to explore how enterprises can improve their processes through technology: one is to drive traditional legacy application systems through integration and authorization; The second is to use modern BPM system to implement BPM application. In BPM system, a process is an application, and each step defined as a process is regarded as a task performed by an individual or other application systems. More specifically, BPM application includes two parts: process and application. In China, the IT construction of most group enterprises or industry customers is still in the initial running-in stage, and a large number of BPM applications need to be designed or transformed. AWS application modeling tools and engines can provide a complete process design tool and execution environment for each step of delivering applications.

It is worth noting that AWS realizes the separation of business application requirements and software development technology with MDA (Model Driven Architecture) technology, so that programmers have more time to focus on user requirements and business agility without considering implementation details. Through the MDA model architecture of AWS, a software application can be visualized and controlled through the model, and can be reassembled at any time. In the business system expressed by AWS, the application consists of a series of visible and tangible models, which greatly reduces the delivery cycle and difficulty of application functions (non-processes) and enables technicians with simple training to design sufficiently complex business applications with high quality and high efficiency. At the same time, AWS modeling tools support the integration with Eclipse(Java programming environment), and designers with simple Java programming experience can realize more complex business logic by extending various event interfaces.

automation

In BPM system, AWS automatically completes repetitive and non-value-added activities through trigger logic, and "human task" is the most important and valuable interactive activity. One of the major challenges in the process automation of "human task" is how to let current task workers know "the next great thing of relay race", and the mechanism responsible for this link is called "participant routing scheme" in AWS. A suitable participant routing scheme can quickly and accurately find the task handler dynamically, without worrying about the process adjustment brought by the adjustment of organization and role. Organization serves for process automation. AWS platform not only supports participant routing schemes according to roles and up-and-down relationships, but also provides more than 20 general routing schemes and rule expressions to meet complex business and organizational structures (such as matrix and multidimensional matrix organizational structure) and flexibly meet more than 90% of process automation routing requirements. AWS provides a Java interface that can be customized and extended for programming when it cannot meet the special requirements of process automation.

Application integration

The identity, local application, business interaction and data of external application systems can be integrated through appropriate technologies. AWS platform provides open tools, products and technologies for integration, and several common integration modes can be realized through AWS platform:

⊕ Identity integration: Login status is controlled by three-party portal.

⊕ Integrated identity: Login status is controlled by AWS portal integrated with other Web applications.

⊕ Data exchange: put the request/result into ESB enterprise service bus or JMS queue in the process.

Collaborate with external system data: read and write external data (XML, WebServices, DB, etc.) in this process.

⊕ Collaborative external file format: conversion between process forms and common file formats (Word, Excel, XML, PDF).

⊕ Collaborative external communication platform: integration of processes and external communication technologies (SMS, MSN, EMail, RTX).

Collaboration with external Web interface: calling external Web application interface (SSO, URL binding) in the process.

⊕ Start/execute AWS process externally: execute AWS process (SDK API, WebServices) in a third-party external system.

⊕ Collaboration with external processes/states: AWS processes trigger external system processes or change the state of data (API, WebServices, DB).

BAM, a business activity monitoring (BAM) platform, provides real-time access to business performance indicators to improve the speed and efficiency of business operations, and dynamically presents these changes and trends to users through a series of graphical tools. BAM enables managers to visually monitor the "key performance indicators" (KPI) of a business or process from their own Web portal, and AWS platform provides platform-level support for monitoring the process and changing business data from time to time. In AWS BAM platform, more than ten process performance and running status monitoring are preset, and the data is dynamically pushed to the Web client through Adobe Flex technology. When implementing a project case, you can also quickly package it into your own business dashboard according to the interface provided by BAM, and deploy the instrument to specific users through a unified authorization mechanism.

process management

In addition to monitoring various metrics and performance indicators, AWS also provides process administrators with the management of process running instances and task running instances, which can track, transfer and stop various instances. Provide rich statistical analysis and model report for process operation data. AWS provides a management and control query tool for leaders to monitor all processes or process instances within their jurisdiction. The tool can query abnormal overtime or qualified process instances according to conditions, and then open the process tracking chart and user form interface to realize the simple and transparent management and monitoring process of system process operation.

Through AWS report tool, the process manager can reverse the process (task tracking) of generating BO data (user business data) of any system, and finally can directly reach the user form interface. You can also use some special process management tools and functions to achieve unconventional requirements (such as task overtime performance statistics, form user data version snapshot, task work handover, etc.). ).

client

AWS Portal Server provides a unified portal for enterprise users to access scattered Web applications, information and data, and a concise and efficient process interaction function for BPM users, so that process participants can complete all tasks or query and track historical tasks through the integrated portal.

Optimal treatment

Adapting to the management changes of enterprises is the main task of BPM, and the ability of AWS to adapt to changes is incomparable to all BPM software, which mainly depends on the MDA architecture adopted by AWS from the beginning. This technology puts the design and execution of process model and other business models on the same unified platform, and extracts common program logic into rich rule expressions, so that trained ordinary people can also complete process optimization. Business people can get what you see, and process designers can adjust the optimized process model or management version online at any time, and this process can be completed with a click of the mouse, which truly realizes the agile response of enterprises to strategic planning and business changes.
