Websphere® process server (WPS) is a software tool by IBM for managing business processes, used in online banking and internet-based commerce. It requires extensive hardware and financial investment, but offers benefits such as process orchestration for combining existing services to create new workflows.

There are many software products available to organize and manage the business functions of a company. Websphere® process server (WPS) is a software tool developed by IBM to manage the automation of an enterprise’s business processes. This tool allows for the coding of complex workflows and business rules in one configuration tool.
This software is used in online banking and internet based commerce. The Websphere® process server manages these services because WPS produces greater scalability for the reusability of these independent functions.
The Websphere® process server requires extensive memory and hardware to operate effectively. Companies considering this approach should be prepared for a sizeable financial investment. As with any business solution, this will typically require a significant capital investment that will last for several years.

Developing software for business use is significantly different from building software for other uses. Developers should understand both business functions and BPEL scripting techniques. The Websphere® process server manages and coordinates the interaction of multiple business modules of an enterprise.

The Websphere® process server runs on the IBM Websphere® application suite. This set of software products was developed by IBM Corporation to manage Internet-based applications. WPS is typically distributed across multiple hardware servers, which increases the reliability and performance of the entire application suite.

Business process orchestration is one of the major benefits of using the Websphere® process server. This is a technique where existing business services are combined to create new products and workflows. Most large companies have adopted service-based technology to enable faster delivery of products.

A good example of process orchestration in practice is an online commerce website. When a customer selects a product, the website will automatically suggest other similar products. This allows the company to sell additional services based on a particular customer’s spending habits.
