Integration RoadMap
Vendors today offer their own integration capabilities to connect their product suite of applications with your legacy HOST systems. However, the majority of work to integrate their applications within "YOUR" enterprise is "YOUR" responsibility. They give you the tools to get the job done, but that's where they stop. The responsibility is yours to figure out how to integrate their point solutions with potentially dozens of disparate applications on your end. The question for you still remains, "how do I successfully integrate these applications within my current IT Network, and yet still service the needs of my business?"

Business Process Management Suites (BPM) |
| |
|
|
The Business Process Management Suite (BPMS) market has significantly evolved over the years. Originally known as Enterprise Applicatin Integration (EAI), the early EAI vendors aggressively pursued new product capabilities that led to the creation of the BPMS category. Some of the features provided by BPM solutions include process simulation, automated process discovery, more sophisticated support for event management related to business event management (BEM) and complex event processing (CEP), and tighter integration of business rules capability. A recent Forrester survey revealed that BPM projects have already become mainstream inside the majority of enterprises. This same survey also found that most of the enterprises were in the early stages of their implementation efforts, but over 80% of the IT architects surveyed felt that the efforts had met or exceeded their expectations. Forrester also projected a $6.3 Billion dollar markety by 2011. This widespread adoption and its early positive results are reasons why 4SIGHT has focused on helping clients with their integration strategies as they continuously expand their enterprise solutions. |
