BPEL Made Simple
Business Process Execution Language (BPEL)
Put EPC at the core of your company. Just as the EPC creates a shared space for your employees to work, it also creates a common environment for your business data to be managed, integrated and accessed by third party systems. Think of the EPC as a centralized information repository, augmenting the current systems that you have in place, and leveraging the functionality of your software services. EPC relies on the universal BPEL standard to allow work to be multiplied across systems.
BPEL is a process modeling/orchestration language that standardizes process descriptions in a markup language similar to XML, allowing for the integration of business process management and automated web service applications. BPEL allows business process users to define what business process activities interact with web services defined using web service description standards (WSDL).
BPEL
enables the sending and receiving of data between process activities that can be fulfilled by services or applications. Business processes modeled in the industry-wide BPMN standard can be exported to BPEL for execution, allowing for the straight-through integration of business processes and web services.
EPC
EPC supports the BPMN standard, as well as export to BPEL for process execution. Our process modeling suite supports a fully integrated service module that maps services directly to process activities. This module will bring the true value of BPEL to your company, allowing you to effectively take advantage of your IT and web service framework in enabling the execution of business processes. BPEL is supported in EPC 5.
