Oracle BPM Development

This Oracle BPM 11g: Implement the Process Model training is ideal for process developers who want to learn how to implement a BPM process model. It also teaches you how to collaborate and support the needs of process analysts in their role as modelers and co-implementers of the process.

Learn To:
    •	Define the underlying implementation for processing user tasks, business rule tasks and service tasks.
    •	Manage the flow of information through a business process by mapping data objects into and out of gateways and business rules.
    •	Integrate data objects into the design of human task forms.
    •	Create more complex process models to meet your business needs.
    •	Use different types of events, including message, signal and timer events.
    •	Manage synchronous and asynchronous communication between processes and sub-processes, peer processes and other services.
    •	Understand exception handling and UI customization.

Since OBPM is closely integrated with SOA Suite, this course will also help you develop a clear understanding of how OBPM integrates with SOA in both the run-time and the development environment. Expert Oracle University instructors will help you develop this knowledge through a combination of instruction and hands-on exercises.

It addresses a more technical audience than the OBPM 11g Modeling course. It assumes that you already understand the basics of process modeling and know how to use the modeling tools of BPM Studio
