BPM, BPEL and Internet of things

Most initial components of Internet of Things comes from wireless sensor networks.

BPM and BPEL helps in aligning changing business process requirements. Any creating orchestrating business processes. creating workflow , business Rules and process Engine.
typical BPM components architecture looks like this:
BPM_Workflow_Service_Patternmore details: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_process_management
When multiple devices interact the processes between them have to be orchestrated , easiest and best way to created interaction between devices and create rules is by creating workflow. Also workflow is What you see is What you Get (WYSIWYG). A Naive user can also diagrammatically drag and drop workflow components available in the panel and set rules. Which are quite similar to Business Rules. So Even BPM will become pervasive with internet of things.
Also programming multiple device interaction for complex task. the complexity can be reduced for programmer by using BPM using notation available in BPMN.

BPMN-CollectVotesA typical workflow of voting process depicted above:
Now similarly device workflow are captured and programmed using BPMN notation.
Recently IBM released Node.js pattern JavaScript for Internet of things over wireless sensor networks.

you can clearly see device workflow above . Also this is how we set the filter rules to analyse filter data from the web using yahoo pipes http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/

Enterprise service Bus ESB, BPM orchestration and Process Re-engineering

This is next topic going to write
I covered ESB and BI architecture similarity in last post.
ESB_arch
https://sandyclassic.wordpress.com/2013/10/02/architecture-difference-between-sap-business-objects-and-ibm-cognos/
Every Java web server has its own ESB in market like BEA weblogic’s Aqualogic as shown above.
BPM business Process Re-engineering BPR efforts are on everywhere due to troubled times this where Business Process Managment BPM products comes in where you can dynamically orchestrate business Processes to reflect change quite quickly using BPM products. Each Business Process is basically a web service or bundle of web service.
some like Pega BPM provide Extra feature:
http://www.pega.com/products/business-process-management
then there is XML structured language for BPM called BPEL Like Oracle BPEL which is declarative language for orchestrating Business Processes.

There vendor which have All in one product like Oracle Weblogic BPM, BPEL, ESB.
Aqualogic ESB is more popular

 

Approach to Best collaboration Management system

Collaboration tools integrated offering (course grain integration using ) integration tools like TIBCO, Oracle BPEL, : Components to be integrated:
1. Content management system CMS  (SharePoint, Joomla, drupal) and
2. Document Management system like (liferay, Document-um, IBM file-net) can be integrated using flexible integration tools.

3. Communication platform like Windows Communication Foundation ,IBM lotus notes integrated with mail client and Social network like Facebook using Facebook API, LinkedIn API, twitter API ,skype API to direct plugin as well as data Analysis of Social networking platform unstructured data captured of the collaboration for the project discussion.
soft-phone using Skype offering recording conversation facility for later use.

Oracle Web centre:

4. Integrated Project specific Wikki/Sharepoint/other CMS pages integrated with PMO site Artefacts, Enterprise Architecture Artefacts.
5. seamless integration to Enterprise Search using Endeca or Microsoft FAST for discovery of document, information, answers from indexed,tagged repository of data.
6. Structured and Unstructured data : hosted on Hadoop clusters using Map-reduce algorithm to Analyse data, consolidate data using Hadoop Hive, HBase and mining to discover hidden information using data mining library in Mahout for unstructured data.
Structured data kept in RDBMS clusters like RAC rapid application clusters.

7. Integrated with Domain specific Enterprise resource planning ERP packages the communication, collaboration,Discovery, Search layer.
8. All integrated with mesh up architecture providing real-time information maps of resource located and information of nearest help.
9. messaging and communication layer integrated with all on-line company software.
10.Process Orchestration and integration Using Business Process Management tool BPM tool, PEGA BPM, Jboss BPM , windows workflow foundation depending landscape used.
11. Private cloud integration using Oracle cloud , Microsoft Azure, Eucalyptus, open Nebula integrated with web API other web platform landscape.
https://sandyclassic.wordpress.com/2011/10/20/infrastructure-as-service-iaas-offerings-and-tools-in-market-trends/
12. Integrated BI system with real time information access by tools like TIBCO spotfire which can analyse real time data flowing between integrated systems.
Data centre API and virtualisation plaform can also throw in data for analysis to hadoop cluster.
