In this approach, AgilePoint BPMS is used as a platform to integrate
disparate systems, but the application logic is developed using another
technology.
When this Approach is Best
- Process-related functions
are fewer than non-process-related functions.
- The application already
exists before they AgilePoint is adopted.
- The process must be
human-centric, where the main purpose is more efficient collaboration between
department or roles.
Guidelines for this Approach
- Separate the process and
the application. Use AgilePoint to automate the process. Let AgilePoint handle
the process and rules that must be changed frequently.
- Use AgilePoint as
integration platform, such as ERP, CRM, rather than directly connecting from
your application to system. Use the process to perform the integration, not in
the application. This is another level of abstraction in the application that
leverages AgilePoint's SOA capability.
