eSigma.com, a Business Process Portal,
officially announced the release of the world's first standards-based
business process search engine and directory.
eSigma, based in Chicago, IL, has
completed the first phase of its product definition roadmap for allowing
businesses to collaborate electronically utilizing the Internet for
connectivity. Using eSigma.com, organizations can publish and search
for business processes at no charge. Unlike traditional business collaboration
models, eSigma is seeking to specifically support those enterprises
focused on Service Oriented Architectures or "SOA" frameworks
for building and managing enterprise applications.
The company, founded by former Tradex
Engineer and Harbinger Solutions Architect, Troy Haaland, has been
operating quietly for over 3 years without taking outside investment.
"We're at the doorstep of an estimated $9.1 billion dollar market
for companies that will use the Internet to collaborate in ways once
thought improbable which are now inevitable," said Mr. Haaland.
"We've carried this vision on our own backs for a long time waiting
for standards to be adopted and the enterprise to embrace this vision
– that time is now upon us.
"eSigma today also announced that over
125 enterprise class business processes have been published within
the public directory. Companies with published Web Services in eSigma's
UDDI directory include: XWebServices, Inc., Xignite, Inc., CDYNE,
Recruitforce.com, StrikeIron, Inc., and Service Objects, Inc.
"I would urge all Web Service
Providers to use eSigma's platform for publishing their Web Services.
As more organizations understand how XML/SOAP based Web Services can
be leveraged into their applications, platforms such as eSigma.com
will undeniably play a key role in the advancement of Service Oriented
Architecture (SOA). The fact that eSigma.com is standards based establishes
the company as a key player in the business process management marketplace,"
says Cristian Sturek, Founder and Principal SOA Architect of XWebServices,
Inc.
"The initial response from service
providers has been extremely positive and we expect that trend to
continue as we introduce new features to the product line-up,"
said Jeff Faath, VP of Engineering at eSigma. Features available immediately
upon registration include the ability to test processes or services,
making certain they are valid and available for building composite
applications. The Process Collaboration Network™ (PCN™)
includes a process management feature so organizations can maintain
a consistent and complete platform for all of their business processes
they wish to share with trading partners.
