Web 2.0 … and More for Business users

Today, users demand user-friendliness from enterprise applications that correspond at least to their own private web portals. They move about within social networks, can play an active role, and the system makes use easier by providing context tailored to these tasks. In short, business users do not want to do without the benefits of Web 2.0 within the enterprise. Keyword: Enterprise 2.0.

But Enterprise 2.0 is more than just Web 2.0 within a business!

Enterprise 2.0 represents a unique user experience that brings tasks and information to the user, encouraging collaboration within the enterprise and with business partners.

We provide our customers with Enterprise 2.0 by using innovative software products from our partner Oracle.

Context-sensitive interaction

The PROMATIS solution core for Enterprise 2.0 lies in the provision of a modern portal platform that enables context-sensitive interaction. For this, we use Oracle WebCenter Suite 11g; or as an economical alternative, popular open source products such as Liferay. The WebCenter Suite is the market's only complete, open and professionally administrable portal platform that combines Web 2.0 functionalities with business processes and enterprise applications. It offers 100% standards-based products and reusable components for the development of many diverse portals, websites, and composite applications.

Web Content Management

More extensive portals require professional web content management, which ensures that the content is always up to date and that the underlying editorial processes will promote active "participation". For this, PROMATIS uses Oracle UCM products that guarantee intuitive and performant use for web developers, site managers and editors by means of user-defined user interfaces. The result: High web publishing productivity, instant access to current content and consistent branding across all enterprise websites.

Automation of Business processes and Business rules

In Enterprise 2.0, the user expects the system to recognize underlying business processes and business rules, monitoring these for compliance. The result: A significant improvement in process quality and performance, as well as relief for business users from routine tasks. We use the Oracle BPM Suite and Oracle SOA Suite for business process automation. The SOA Suite provides services for the automation of business rules and business activity monitoring.
