Next step in Web-services and integration technology COPENHAGEN, Denmark 18-NOV-2004 01:00 AM At Microsoft IT Forum in Copenhagen, Oracle is to showcase Oracle® BPEL (Business Process Execution Language) Process Manager, running on the Windows platform. The cornerstone of Oracle's Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) and integration platform, Oracle BPEL Process Manager is the industry's first and most complete BPEL solution.
Oracle Integration enables organizations to easily deploy open, flexible business
processes that leverage existing information technology (IT) assets to quickly
adapt to changing business demands. Building on the business process management
and Web services capabilities in Oracle Application Server 10g, Oracle now boasts
the most complete integration solution, including Web Services, SOA and BPEL
support, Business Activity Monitoring technology, rules engine, Business Process
Monitoring and traditional Enterprise Application Integration (EAI). Using Oracle
BPEL Process Manager and the entire Oracle integration solution, companies can
reduce the cost of integrating business applications by orchestrating standard
Web services and other assets into flexible, portable business processes.
"With Oracle's grid computing platform, organizations can allocate IT
resources to address spikes in utilization requirements," said Thomas Kurian,
senior vice president for Oracle Application Server and Application Development
Tools. "Further building on this capability, Oracle BPEL Process Manager
enables organizations to quickly respond to changing business requirements and
reduce the cost and complexity of enterprise application integration projects."
Oracle's BPEL Process Manager supports the industry-standard BPEL specification
backed by Microsoft, IBM, SAP and BEA, and widely recognized as an enterprise
blueprint for reducing the cost, complexity and inflexibility of integration
projects. Oracle BPEL Process Manager, hailed as the best BPEL implementation
on the market, enables organizations to easily implement adaptive transactions
and collaborative business processes based on composite applications. The solution
includes an engine for executing business processes, a console to monitor, manage
and debug business processes and a rich graphical interface to design and build
business processes. Similar to other Oracle technology products, Oracle BPEL
Process Manager adheres to open standards, can be deployed on any J2EE compatible
server and interoperates with the .NET environment. It provides organizations
such as the European Space Agency with the most open means for executing business
processes written in BPEL. As part of Oracle Application Server 10g, this native
BPEL engine completes Oracle's comprehensive SOA and integration platform.
