Excerpt from whitepaper

Today in the modern world nothing exists alone - a person, a process step or a technology are all part of something larger. How we interact with the other parts of the whole is defined as orchestration. In the connected enterprise these orchestration steps define success or failure for everyone.

To achieve their full potential, systems must be able to relate to and share information with other systems.  Solving these challenges requires normalizing connectivity and business processes without hard coding, but this isn’t traditional.

“Work is a process, and any process needs to be controlled. To make work productive, therefore, requires building the appropriate controls into the process of work.”

Peter F. Drucker
