Product: AgilePoint Server

AgilePoint Server™

AgilePoint Server is a powerful XML-based and highly adaptive process engine that executes, monitors, and controls business processes at run-time. This powerful process engine enables users to automate and continually improve business processes and to route information in accordance with defined business rules.

Built to fully leverage the .NET Framework, AgilePoint Server drastically simplifies the creation of .NET-connected BPM applications using XML and Web services. To meet the most demanding BPM applications, it uses the latest Microsoft App Server technology and enterprise databases to provide scalability, transactional integrity, security, multi-threading, and load balancing. AgilePoint Server exposes a set of rich BPM services that can be accessed through open APIs, Web Services, Messaging Queues, and COM.

Key features of AgilePoint Server include:

1. Industry Process Modeling Standard Compliant
It is fully compliant with the WfMC (Workflow Management Coalition) standard to support sophisticated workflow elements including looping, branching, parallel processing, and embedded sub-flows. In addition, its XML architecture enables it to interoperate with other standards including BPEL, etc.

2. Process Template Versioning
It supports automated versioning of process models throughout their lifecycle from creation, to iterative check-in, check-out, release, and retirement.

3. Integration with LDAP/Windows Active Directory
It can be integrated into the enterprise infrastructure by leveraging the existing user and role management maintained in the local Windows environment, LDAP, custom or other compatible name/directory service.

4. Flexible Use as Embedded or Autonomous Workflow
It can be deployed standalone to orchestrate loose-coupled business processes across multiple applications or embedded into a software system as the in-application workflow component.

5. Highly Adaptive XML-Powered Architecture
Powered by a highly adaptive XML-based process automation engine, it makes rapid configuration of business processes possible, with little or no coding required.
