Overview

BEA WebLogic Process Integrator is a powerful workflow engine that automates workflow, business-to-business processes, and enterprise application assembly. WebLogic Process Integrator runs on BEA WebLogic Server and is a robust, J2EE standards-based workflow and process integration solution.

Using an intuitive flowchart paradigm, business analysts use the WebLogic Process Integrator Studio to define business processes that span applications or to automate human interaction with applications. Developers can use WebLogic Process Integrator to assemble application components quickly without programming. The assembled applications are proactively executed and managed by the WebLogic Process Integrator engine.

Individual business processes may have life cycles ranging from minutes to days (or longer), depending on the complexity and duration of the various constituent activities. To accommodate these broad-ranging requirements, the WebLogic Process Integrator product provides support in three broad functional areas:

• Modeling: Captures the definition of the business process

• Process Execution: Manages process execution in an operational environment, sequencing the various activities to be performed

• Process Monitoring: Monitors the status of processes and collects statistics for performance reports
