This 17th part in the series focuses on new products that lets one implement a Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) life cycle. In the model phase, IBM WebSphere Business Modeler (Modeler) is used to design and optimize the desired business processes through simulation. After the business process is designed, it is implemented by combining new and existing services using WebSphere Integration Developer (Integration Developer). The process is then deployed into WebSphere Process Server (Process Server). After deployment, one can manage the application from a business perspective using WebSphere Business Monitor (Monitor). Information gathered during the manage phase helps one gain real-time insight into business processes, enabling better business decisions and feeding information back into the life cycle for continuous process improvement.
