LANSA Composer (Code-free Business Process Integration)

LANSA Composer Rippe & KingstonLANSA Composer is a design and execution platform for integrating business activities involving transport and transformation of data and custom business processing. It satisfies the four key requirements of a business process integration solution:

Every business is under pressure to automate manual processes, better integrate internal systems and securely share data with external parties. But most Business Process Integration (BPI) tools are unsuited for quick and simple solutions to urgent business requirements. LANSA Composer delivers the power of BPI technology in a highly visual environment so designers and business analysts, rather than developers, can rapidly automate and integrate business processes.

What can LANSA Composer do for your business?

A Business Process Integration solution like LANSA Composer differs from other middleware because it takes a top-down, process-centric approach. The goal is to automate manual processes and eliminate re-keying of data by reducing the amount of paper, email, fax and human interaction required to complete a given business process.

LANSA Composer is the first BPI solution designed specifically for the heartland of the System i/iSeries community – the small or medium sized business. It is simple to install, easy to use and truly affordable.


 

Before LANSA Composer

In many businesses, we have found that one of the main obstacles to achieving operational efficiency is actually knowing which tasks are performed when, by whom and under what circumstances? A lot of process expertise is carried around in people‘s heads, some is written down, but very little is properly documented or automated.

LANSA has been active in the application development and integration tools space for twenty years and have identified a set of common issues that seemed to hold true almost regardless of an organization's size, industry or geographic location:

Common  Issues

Businesses relies too much on error-prone manual process

Existing data transfers are batch-oriented and rigid

Application developers are over-burdened

Implementing middleware products costs more than the software itself

BPI technology is beyond the reach of most companies

 

 

 

 

LANSA Composer was designed to help companies overcome these issues and to bring the power of Business Process Integration technology to everyone.


 

After LANSA Composer

With LANSA Composer you can capture, model and implement a set of automated processes that, like robots on a factory floor, are more predictable and future-proof than their manual predecessors. LANSA Composer can also be used to replace any batch processing or semi-automated file transfers with real-time interfaces between applications and databases.

The end result is a more robust and efficient operating environment in which computer automation is, once again, making people and their employers more productive.

Typical Business Solutions

Streamline manual processes, such as sales order processing

Replace batch processing with real-time communication

Link back-office and ERP systems to new applications like CRM

Easily share data between System i, Windows and Web applications

Connect any application on any platform via XML Web Services
