Running a successful company today often requires an IT strategy that can harness two diametrically opposed forces in a way that creates value and empowers the business to grow. For example, how can IT solutions provide strategic control while enabling operational flexibility? Or how can an IT organization create a dynamic yet reliable environment? Or how can different technologies and perspectives be integrated so that individuals can work together and collaborate?
Answering those questions correctly enables business agility. And that's where Vitria's new product, M3O, comes in. M3O is the convergence of business process management, event processing, and Web 2.0 into a solution that empowers business analysts, managers, and policy makers.

Business events are everywhere. A customer generates an order, a network goes
down, a truck leaves the warehouse – these all represent events. The significance of
a single event to business is only determined in context of other events. An increasingly popular architectural approach to process events is event-driven
architecture (EDA). According to an ebizQ survey, a vast majority of practitioner intend to implement EDA within a service-oriented architecture (SOA) paradigm. BEA’s WebLogic Event Server is a Java based application server specifically built for event processing.
The key problem for many organizations is how to assemble, match and correlate
all the information that's required for their information supply chain. How
do they get that mission-critical product information consistent across their
Website and stores? Across geographies? How do they keep it current and
accurate? Information supply chains choked with incomplete or inaccurate
data make it extremely difficult for companies to respond quickly to business
change or even properly exploit their existing sales opportunities.
The DataLensÈ System from Silver Creek Systems solves these problems through process automation
and semantic technologies. Target customers include manufacturing, retail and distribution companies,
as well as any organization that needs to consolidate, unify and manage product data. While the solution
can handle a variety of data quality and integration problems, Silver Creek has chosen to specifically
focus on product data and the problems associated with using it effectively. Download this "Solution Spotlight" report to learn more.
Many enterprises today are looking for ways to incorporate technologies
such as XML and embrace paradigms like Services Oriented Architecture.
Business users need a way to integrate disparate information sources to
perform advanced analysis, visualize and personalize complex information,
and ensure accuracy in regulatory submissions. IT managers want to unify
unrelated XML schema to maximize the technology's value through information-
rich applications.
With JustSystem's xfy Enterprise, IT developers can create a common, company-specific
XML vocabulary that can provide a unified view of the business depending on
the specific business problems management is trying to solve. Download this report to learn more.
Although service-oriented architectures (SOA) provide more flexibility to deliver new business solutions, the loosely coupled, distributed services also add complexity. For SOA success, this inherent complexity needs to be managed through SOA governance.
Enterprises just starting with SOA, might begin with Actional SOAPstation for security, and step into Looking Glass' full featured SOA runtime governance, as their SOA evolves.
More than ever before, information is the key to corporate innovation. The right information can help a company sell more effectively, collaborate with its supply chain partners more efficiently, find new opportunities for new products and even help customize interactions with customers to improve revenue and increase customer retention or satisfaction. However, all these benefits are driven by a company's ability to use corporate information effectively and efficiently.
One leading organization delivering this type of solution is IBM, with its IBM Information Server. In this paper, ebizQ takes a closer look at the IBM Information Server, including an overview of the types of problems it solves, its architecture, and the results of an "evaluation" that ebizQ analysts took of IBM Information Server shortly before its release.
WebSphere Information Integrator allows organizations to have direct, native access to any data source to create a data virtualization layer that can be accessed in real-time by any application. Even though it's not replicating or duplicating databases or stores of data into a new data mart or data warehouse, WebSphere Information Integrator essentially looks like a large data warehouse, where all of a company's reporting or information needs can be met.
Any organization that has a diverse set of data that needs to be instantly accessible (without waiting for nightly or weekly updates or data warehouse loads) should consider an information integration solution like WebSphere Information Integrator.
Adobe LiveCycle leverages the combination of Adobe Reader and Adobe Acrobat as ubiquitous desktop clients and PDF as a robust user interface for delivering process automation solutions outside
the firewall to users who can interact both online and offline.
Oracle Business Integration focuses on helping businesses connect more closely with partners, leverage more value out of existing resources, as well as integrating disparate data sources and applications.
The Ascential Enterprise Integration Suite provides the capabilities needed to identify, resolve and maintain master data across systems. Since the technology combines these capabilities onto a single platform, the level of automation is dramatically increased, leading to a faster time to value and lower risk for projects requiring high quality master data.
