A look into the crystal ball at JBoss BRMS & BPM Suite

Eric D. SchabellJBoss Technology EvangelistMunich, 23 October JBoss OneDayTalk 2013

Intro BRMS & BPM SuiteRule, Process, Data, FormModelers & SimulationExecution & ReportingCloudy BPMWe will start with a discussion of how the BRMS comes to be. We will breeze over the background of BPM, discuss how the project jBPM releases are incorporated into the BRMS product.

From there we will examine the interesting points as they apply to a business user, followed by the more technical elements of BRMS that will be of interest to developers.

Finally we will summarize in an overview the new BPM components that come from the jBPM project. We will also mention the components that will NOT be included into the BRMS 5.3 product that are in the jBPM project. These are up and coming features that have yet to mature enough for inclusion at this time, but you can expect to appear in future versions of BRMS.
