January 10, 2008Hey, Who Put That BPM in My SOA?
In a really interesting blog entry, Jim Sinur (formerly of Gartner, and now with Global 360), said that while BPM can survive well managing human-only activities without SOA, SOA really cannot exist without BPM. "As more rules and processes are leveraged as reusable components, they take on a SOA flavor," he said.
According to Jim:
BPM enhances the very essence of Service, but services can also be processes. It is a strange relationship and certainly a codependent one, indeed. This is why there is BPM in my SOA, and SOA in my BPM.
