Interoperability with IBM Business Process Manager

You can use IBM® Process Designer to design IBM Business Process Manager integration services, including input and output business objects, and use these definitions to generate services and operations in IBM Integration Bus.

From IBM Business Process Manager, a process designer can specify the input data that is sent to a system task and the response that is expected from the task. This information is passed to the IBM Integration Bus development team. The IBM Integration Bus development team implements a service that accepts the defined request and delivers the expected response. For more information, see Integrating an IBM Business Process Manager integration service with an IBM Integration Bus integration service.

An existing corporate system interface can be complex and can deliver too little or too much information. Coping with such information can overwhelm an application. The process designer can use process information to obtain further details by using IBM Integration Bus services. A BPM process designer and an IBM Integration Bus developer can agree on a common interface for a better exchange of data.

You use an export .twx file to exchange data between IBM Business Process Manager and IBM Integration Bus. For more information about BPM export .twx files, see Export .twx files.
