BPEL vs. BPMN Which should I use?

Consider BPEL and BPMN as layered approaches

for handling “processes” within IT

record structure

How complex are the

transformations?

Transformation to apply is always the

same, regardless of content

Transformation applied

can vary based on content

and other factors

Any data

enrichment

requirement?

Yes, complex

Yes, for intermediate approvals

Error

handling and

reconciliation

None, or simple foreign-key typeDATA CENTRIC

Use Data

Integration

PROCESS

ORIENTED

Use Service

Integration

No or just for final approval

Human

participation

during

movement?

After insertion of

complete set

in staging tables

START

Large and

batch oriented

Smaller data set

Immediate

availability

requirements

Yes (data lookups, intermediate validation, etc.)

On a msg-per-msg basis

No, mostly just transformation

Conditional

steps?

Use the Right Technique for the Right Problem Design Patterns & Reference Architecture

Message Processing Patterns • Asynchronous messaging

• Event-driven consumers

• Competing consumers

• Service instance routing

• Guaranteed delivery

• Request / Response

Benefits: • Guaranteed delivery

• High throughput & scalability

• Loosely coupled interaction

Service / EBO Governance Patterns • Compatible / Incompatible changes

• Schema / Service versioning

• Service retirement

• Service decomposition

Benefits: • Promotes organizational agility

• Protects consumers from provider contract changes

• Eliminates need for consumers and providers to evolve at the

same rate

Integration Artifact Extensibility Patterns • Schema extensibility

• Service extensibility

• Transformation extensibility

• Business process extensibility

Benefits: • Pre-defined extensibility points

• Extensions are upgrade-safe

Requirement for

low latency?

Absolutely need

less than 5s end-to-end and 60% of this

already spent in processing at endpoint

~ 5s OK

High throughput?

Yes

over 100,000 msg/h (~ 30 msg/s)

No

less than 100,000 msg/h

Transformation

intensive?

No

Yes

Over 60% of

the work is

transformation

Data integration

or process-

oriented?

Process-oriented

Data-centric

WS interfaces

and XSD much

better-suited for

Direct

no

yes

How many

applications are on

each end of

integration?

Only one product on each

end of the integrationMore than one product on either side

Use canonical pattern

& EBOs

START

Explore Direct

Integration

Integration guidelines

being followed by Oracle

across AIA, Fusion Apps,

etc.
