Intalio donates business process technology
Intalio has donated its BPMN (Business Process Modeling Notation) process modeler to the Eclipse Foundation.
The technology is available under an Eclipse Public License as part of the Eclipse SOA Tools Platform project.
The modeler will be used to build what the company calls "the first open source business process management system." It complements the BPEL engine donated by Intalio to the Apache Software Foundation and the Tempo BPEL4People Workflow framework hosted by Intalio.org, the company said. The three components form the foundation for Intalio|BPMS (Business Process Management System), a BPM solution to supporting a "zero-code" development model, Intalio said.
"While some BPM vendors give their proprietary process modeling tool away but charge for the necessary runtime components, we make our entire product available for free and give away the source code under open source licenses for its most critical components," said Ismael Ghalimi, founder and CEO of Intalio, in a statement released by the company. "Furthermore, the building blocks for Intalio|BPMS provide the most faithful implementations of relevant industry standards for BPM, namely BPMN, BPEL and BPEL4People. This is part of our mission to make BPM available to a mainstream audience, and today's donation is yet another step toward this goal."
Earlier this year, Intalio donated its Eclipse Modeling Framework model comparator to Eclipse.
The BPMN Modeler is available here.
