Resumen. El concepto de Negocio Bajo Demanda, acuñado por IBM, tiene como finalidad facilitar la relación entre dos dominios tradicionalmente separados en casi todas las organizaciones, el dominio del negocio y el tecnológico. Este es un problema recurrente en la mayor parte de los sistemas de información. Este nuevo concepto esta basado en la Arquitectura Orientada a Servicios, más conocida como SOA (Service Oriented Architecture). Esta arquitectura permite conectar los servicios software y los del negocio. Si las organizaciones lograran implementar esta nueva idea de Negocio Bajo Demanda sin duda mejorarían el desarrollo de sus procesos software, especialmente si además en paralelo también aplicaran otros estándares tales como MDA (Model Driven Arquitecture) o BPM (Business Process Managament). Por un lado MDA facilita, através e sus modelos CIM (Computation Independent Model) y PIM (Platform Independent Model), la separación entre la lógica del negocio y las plataformas software e infreaestructuras tecnológicas. Por otro lado BPM ayuda a definir los procesos de negocio o modelos CIM de MDA. En este artículo se plantea una nueva recomendación basada en MDA que combina BPM, SOA y las técnicas de Negocio Bajo Demanda, para facilitar la definición de las fases iniciales del desarrollo de procesos software. Partiendo de la creación de los modelos de procesos de negocio, conocidos como CIM en MDA, se pueden crear los modelos software a ellos asociados, basados ya en servicios sofware y conocidos como modelos PIM en MDA.
Keywords: MDA, BPM, SOA, Negocio Bajo Demanda.
]]> Abstract. On Demand Business concept, from IBM, shows how to coordinate the transformation of enterprise organization and its technological infrastructure to bridge the gap between business and technology. This problem appears in most of the information systems. This concept is based on Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) to improve the connection between business services and software services. If companies can reach this On Demand Business environment they could improve the software development process by applying standards like Model Driven Architecture (MDA), to separate business logic from software and technological platforms, and Business Process Management (BPM) to define business processes as Computation Independent Models (CIM). In this article we propose a new MDA approach that combines BPM, SOA and the On Demand Business to improve the initial phase of the software development process. Starting on the creation of business processes models, classified like CIM, we can associate them to initial software models, based on software services, classified like Platform Independent Models (PIM).
Keywords: MDA, BPM, SOA, On Demand Business.
