Abstract:

A method of executing plural versions of business process management software on plural integration servers. A plurality of components are defined. The components can include executable process logic of a business process and at least one port defining a standard representation of an external interface of said component. Connections between ports of desired components are also defined. The components and connections are stored in a repository as a set objects and the set of objects is loaded as a first version in a first runtime environment by configuring run time properties of the set of the objects. After modification of the set of objects, the modified set can be loaded as a second on a second server by configuring run time properties of the set of the objects as modified.
