Process owners and business owners can use this solution to engage directly in the improvement of their business processes.

IBM BPM excels in integrating role-based process design, and provides a social BPM experience. It enables asset sharing and creating versions through its Process Center. The Process Center acts as a unified repository, making it possible to manage changes to the business processes with confidence.

IBM BPM supports a wide range of standards for process modeling and exchange. Built-in analytics and search capabilities help to further improve and optimize the business processes.

This IBM Redbooks® publication provides valuable information for project teams and business people that are involved in projects using IBM BPM. It describes the important design decisions that you face as a team. These decisions invariably have an effect on the success of your project.

These decisions range from the more business-centric decisions, such as which should be your first process, to the more technical decisions, such as solution analysis and architectural considerations. Show less

Abstract
It is imperative to deliver more meaningful user engagements by extending business processes to the mobile working environments.

This IBM® Redbooks® publication provides an overview of the market forces that push organizations to reinvent their process with Mobile in mind. It describes IBM Mobile Smarter Process and explains how the capabilities provided by the offering help organizations to mobile-enable their processes.

This book outlines an approach that organizations can use to identify where within the organization mobile technologies can offer the greatest benefits. It provides a high-level overview of the IBM Business Process Manager and IBM Worklight® features that can be leveraged to mobile-enable processes and accelerate the adoption of mobile technologies, improving time-to-value. Key IBM Worklight and IBM Business Process Manager capabilities are showcased in the examples included in this book. The examples show how to integrate with IBM Bluemix™ as the platform to implement various supporting processes.

This IBM Redbooks publication discusses architectural patterns for exposing business processes to mobile environments. It includes an overview of the IBM MobileFirst reference architecture and deployment considerations.

Through use cases and usage scenarios, this book explains how to build and deliver a business process using IBM Business Process Manager and how to develop a mobile app that enables remote users to interact with the business process while on-the-go, using the IBM Worklight Platform.

The target audience for this book consists of solution architects, developers, and technical consultants who will learn the following information:


What is IBM Mobile Smarter Process
Patterns and benefits of a mobile-enabled Smarter Process
IBM BPM features to mobile-enable processes
IBM Worklight features to mobile-enable processes
Mobile architecture and deployment topology

The Patterns for e-business are a group of proven, reusable assets that can be used to increase the speed of developing and deploying Web applications. This IBM Redbooks publication focuses on how the Self-Service and Extended Enterprise business patterns, and the Application Integration pattern, can be used to start implementing solutions using the service-oriented architecture approach.

We guide you through the process of selecting and applying Business, Application and Runtime patterns. Next, the platform-specific Product mappings are identified based upon the selected Runtime pattern.

We present guidelines for applying the Patterns and service-oriented architecture approach to a sample business scenario and for selecting Web services technologies.

We provide detailed design, development, and runtime guidelines for several scenarios, including synchronous and asynchronous service buses, UDDI service directory, and the Web Services Gateway.

This publication concludes with an examination of how a service-oriented architecture can provide a step in the direction of IBM’s e-business on-demand vision. Show less

The API Economy is the commercial exchange of business functions, capabilities, or competencies as services using web application programming interfaces (APIs). APIs drive the digital economy and companies that do not embrace the API economy will be left behind.

The API Economy is key to accelerating value, improving business performance, and extending your business services and goods to the widest possible audience. Making sure your company is easy to do business with and creating paths to new business opportunities is why the API Economy signals a new business reality. Companies that seize this opportunity will differentiate themselves and grow.

This IBM® Redguide™ publication has the following objectives:


Explore the business opportunities and benefits accrued by embracing the API Economy.
Offer an adoption model illustrating the use of APIs for experimentation, platform building, repurposing business processes, or becoming a digital enterprise.
Illustrate the relationship between APIs and service-oriented architecture (SOA).

This IBM Redguide publication illustrates how to get started and gain value with the API Economy. It is about creating a digital platform that allows your company to improve its brand loyalty, reduce customer churn, improve business performance, increase revenue sources but most importantly, increase client value.
