At a Glance: TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM is a unified business process management (BPM) and services-oriented architecture (SOA) platform that provides a single environment for automating business processes involving both people and systems. It makes the management, distribution, and analysis of work quick and simple, while providing all of the agility and development savings of SOA.
The Case for Business Process Management Suites
Business processes define how an enterprise operates and differentiates itself. Increased globalization, greater competition, and stricter regulation drive the need to optimize processes for operational efficiency, and make them more intelligent. Competitive advantage lies in quickly and efficiently adapting business processes to changing conditions. Business process management suites (BPMS) let you automate, manage, measure, optimize, and most importantly, innovate your business processes. TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM allows the business to own and govern its process assets while meeting the requirements of an enterprise. Business teams can manage dashboards, resources, work, calendars, and processes, while IT owns the supporting infrastructure. Using TIBCO Business Studio as the model-driven design-time tool for ActiveMatrix BPM, business experts and process authors collaborate to create process models, organization models, data models, forms, and pageflow models. A package of models is deployed to ActiveMatrix BPM, which provides enterprise services shared templates to access data and applications, grid-based scalability and reliability, and management.

BPM Platform Flexibility

ActiveMatrix BPM decouples process from work and organization structure to provide flexibility in how work is distributed. This capability lets the business govern and control how, when, where, and to whom work is delivered without affecting any deployed processes. The workforce is managed as a single resource, breaking down functional silos by delivering work to organizational or virtual teams, routed by skills, authorization level, or geography, or escalated through a matrix reporting structure.

Attributes and Capabilities

BPM and SOA in a Single Engine
The ActiveMatrix platform provides OSGi-based infrastructure for developing, deploying, and managing BPM and SOA applications: common deployment and management tooling, grid-based vertical and horizontal scalability, active-active clustering, automatic elasticity to match load, and governance. Data and application services used by the deployed business processes bind to SOA services, providing access to enterprise data and applications.

Multi-Tenancy
An instance of ActiveMatrix BPM can run on a single or group of servers and support multiple BPM containers with complete processing and data isolation, yet share the same administrative interface. The flexibility of the ActiveMatrix platform allows for different BPM containers within the same ActiveMatrix BPM instance to maintain different versions. This flexibility allows for upgrading a single tenant without affecting any of the others.

Enterprise Strength
ActiveMatrix BPM has been proven to scale with tens of thousands of users running thousands of processes in parallel. True active-active clustering allows for your business processes to be available to your business at all times.

Flexible Interface and Clients

Processes and work items can be completed from a number of out-of-thebox clients including TIBCO WorkSpace (Ajax-based), OpenSpace (gadget-based), OpenSpace Accessible Client, and MobileSpace. A full service-based API is available for those who want to build a custom client. The ActiveMatrix BPM forms renderer can also be embedded in a client to remove the need to develop forms.

Business Owns and Governs ProcessAssets

The business has full control of what skills and privileges each resource has, as well as their roles, groups, location, and teams. Using an organization models privilege and capability-based routing ensures work is delivered to the right resource at the right time. Overlay calendars can be created or edited by business users and applied to deployed processes to affect work routing and SLA deadlines, working days, and other work metrics. sources. Spotfire provides advanced visualizations, data discovery, dashboards, analytic apps, cost-based optimization, and predictive analytics.

Completely Model-Driven
ActiveMatrix BPM uses TIBCO Business Studio to provide a completely modeldriven approach to process design with no coding involved. Process models, organization models, data models, forms, and pageflow models can all be designed with drag-and-drop ease. Built-in support for control, resource, and data workflow patterns eliminates the need for complex, brittle custom coding or rules.

Process Analytics and Dashboards

ActiveMatrix BPM uses TIBCOs own data visualization platform, TIBCO Spotfire, to provide an end-to-end view of all the business processes and related data
