Session given at the PTJUG (Portugal JUG): A Business Process Management System (BPMS) offers you the capabilities to better manage and streamline your business processes. JBoss jBPM continues its vision in this area by offering a lightweight process engine for executing business processes, combined with the necessary services and tooling to support business processes in their entire life cycles. This allows not only developers but also business users to manage your business processes more efficiently. A lot has happened in the BPM area over the last few years, with the introduction of the BPMN 2.0 standard, the increasing interest in more dynamic and adaptive processes, integration with business rules and event processing, case management, etc. In this session, we will show you how jBPM5 tackles these challenges, discuss migration to this new platform and give you an overview of its most important features.

1. JBoss jBPM, the future is now for all your Business Processes Eric D. Schabell JBoss Senior Solution Architect

2. What is BPM? Overview jBPM5 Flexible Processes Cool Stuff

3. Business Process Management is a systematic approach to making an organization's workflow more effective, more efficient and more capable of adapting to an ever-changing environment.

4. Workflow is? A business process as an activity or set of activities that will accomplish a specific organizational goal.

32. BPMN 2.0 Example < definitions ... > < process id=&quot;com.sample.bpmn.hello&quot; name=&quot;Hello World&quot; > < startEvent id=&quot;_1&quot; name=&quot;StartProcess&quot; /> < sequenceFlow sourceRef=&quot;_1&quot; targetRef=&quot;_2&quot; /> < scriptTask id=&quot;_2&quot; name=&quot;Hello&quot; > < script >System.out.println(&quot;Hello World&quot;);</ script > </ scriptTask > < sequenceFlow sourceRef=&quot;_2&quot; targetRef=&quot;_3&quot; /> < endEvent id=&quot;_3&quot; name=&quot;EndProcess&quot; /> </ process > </ definitions >

34. BPMN2 is the strategic direction

35. BPEL requirements will be fulfilled with implementation.

36. Project Riftsaw – implementation of BPEL will be included in SOA-P 5.2

37. Future BPM solutions will be built on BPMN2 standards

38. JBoss BPM platform is our answer to all process flow / workflow solutions
