Re: Workflow products

[Javier Borrajo]

Er..is this something new? MQSeries (the part I worked with in the past) is just a messaging system with  multi-platform support, noteably a lot of mainframe/mini support. I wasn't aware of workflow support in Forte either. I guess all of this stuff really depends on your definition of what workflow means. IBM MQSeries Workflow is a workflow management system (WFMS), including buid-time tools (business process modeling) and runtime components. It uses MQSeries as the underlying transport mechanism for interprocess communications and for external system integration.   Sun Forté has several products, one of them is Fusion/Conductor, which is also a full-blown WFMS. It builds on the Forté TOOL programming language, design time workshops and configuration, distribution, deployment and monitoring tools of the Forté platform.   Regards       Javier
