Bonita Open Solution est la première solution Open Source complète de Business Process Management (BPM). Basée sur un moteur de workflow robuste, elle fournit tout l'outillage nécessaire pour créer efficacement des applications d’automatisation de processus métier, avec tous les bénéfices de l'approche BPM et une forte connectivité avec les systèmes d'informations existants. Cette présentation introduira d'abord le concept du BPM et ses objectifs, puis une démonstration de Bonita Open Solution montrera comment elle peut être utilisée pour implémenter des applications métier. Ensuite, nous étudierons les choix et l'architecture techniques et nous verrons comment Bonita tire parti de technologies bien connues et efficaces (Eclipse RCP, Goolge Web Toolkit, Hibernate, Groovy...). Nous pourrons même donner quelques détails sur la manière dont l'équipe de Bonita utilise Scrum pour gérer le cycle de développement du produit. Par Aurélien Pupier

Why?
Imagine you are
employed in a Mc
Lorrain.
But the cooker is ill, and
you don’t know how to
cook “quiche lorraine”.

And all the people wanting to eat “quiche
lorraine”...

BPM

Need for processes in your company
You need to know what to do in such case.
But it would be even easier if you wouldn't
have to know the bigger picture

BPM
●
Business processes answer to questions such
as:
●
“And now, what do I have to do?”
●
“How can I do that?”
●
“How am I expected to do that?”
●
It is all about organization, and is clearly
driven by business.

BPMS provides agility to your business.

BOS Engine
Je suis l'une des technologies
utilisées dans le moteur de Bonita...
…notamment pour la persistence
des définitions de process,
et des états de leurs instances.
Je suis sans doute le framework
de persistence ORM le plus utilisé dans le
monde Java.
Je suis, je suis...?
