More on the ISIS Papyrus Platform
ISIS Papyrus - built on its Papyrus Objects integration architecture - delivers a platform for business process management across Papyrus Inbound and Outbound, third-party and legacy applications. Papyrus is delivering pre-built business processes across ERP, CRM, ECM, as well as business intellligence and industry applications using a meta-object model, SOA-compatible and general messaging interfaces, and a powerful freely definable portal user interface. Inbound and Outbound document management is tightly integrated with the central Change Management repository. Additionally, business users are able to extend the object model with their own meta-data definitions, store it to the repository and have full upgrade protection across any future product versions.The Papyrus architecture solves the long-term managment problem of processes that are linked to multiple applications, by not depending on late-to-the-market standards such as BPEL we can focus on true long-term and cross-platform compatibilty to give our customers the flexibility to make changes to the underlying applications as well as the processes without disrupting the business users.
Using the Papyrus WebRepository customers can immediately use Papyrus’ existing business objects, interface services, process and business case samples and infrastructure components to define specific end-to-end process integrations with or without related documents. Using a proven reference architecture and reusable service interfaces, Papyrus WebRepository significantly reduces the time, cost and risk associated with implementing Service Oriented Architecture projects. Our common model approach for application integration provides the foundation for creating composite processes while ensuring long-term process durability. WebRepository allows customers to define processes and integrations with the same development efficiency, control and visibility that ISIS Papyrus employs for its own software systems and inhouse applications. The Papyrus WebRepository not only manages the modeling and deployment of how processes and services are utilized and how they relate, it further enables customers to run complete integration tests, and most of all ensures the rentention of process analysis as well as implementation knowledge.

Hi. is their an architecture for the Papyrus Docexec and pdf that handles High Availability (Active/Passive or Active/Active) Setup? Can it be also be clustered in a windows 2003 cluster ? Thank you very much

Thanks for your question. Papyrus supports a High Availability Setup with Hot-Backup nodes. The Passive Hot-Backup node takes up the workload if the Active stops to respond to its pinging. It does not require a Windows 2003 Cluster Setup but just a shared disk or SAN. This functionality is available for Windows, Linux, HP/UX, AIX, Solaris and z/OS. The Hot backup node does not have to be on the same operating system as the active node.
In V7 we will also offer a FT-Cluster Mode, where several running nodes create a DB and TX cluster that is completely FAULT TOLERANT. A failing node will not even be noticed by the user and a crashed data node will be recovered from the data copies of th other cluster nodes. That functionality will be available in V7 in 2009.
