Business Process Management
Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides various services and products that cater to different business needs, commonly referred to as Business Process Management (BPM). However, AWS itself doesn't have a specific product labeled as “BPM” in the traditional sense. Instead, it offers a range of services that can be used to build BPM solutions or workflows. Some of these services include:
AWS Step Functions: This service enables you to coordinate the components of distributed applications using visual workflows. It allows you to design and run workflows that stitch together different AWS services.
Amazon Simple Workflow Service (SWF): Though not explicitly labeled as BPM, SWF is used for coordinating the execution of tasks in a distributed application. It's a coordination service, providing APIs to build scalable and resilient applications.
Amazon Managed Workflows for Apache Airflow (MWAA): This managed service allows for building, managing, and scaling workflows using Apache Airflow. While not strictly BPM, it aids in orchestrating workflows.
When creating BPM solutions on AWS, users often leverage a combination of these services alongside other AWS offerings and third-party tools to construct a workflow that fits their business needs.
