  • Publication number: 20180268338
    Abstract: A process management tool (PMT) brings together the functionalities of rigid, system-enforced workflow orchestration and user-driven, task-centric collaboration space. The PMT allows a user to store their work artifact in their preferred repositories or file sharing services. Users share the work artifact via the PMT, which connects an invited participant in a specific role associated with the work artifact. The PMT forms a microflow by creating a context on top of the work artifact relating the work artifact to actions and persons. Microflow templates facilitate existing work practice without requiring time-consuming and expensive integration projects or workflow modeling.

  • Patent number: 9342330
    Abstract: Various embodiments provide mechanisms that mitigate organizational exposures when evaluating and choosing computer applications, enhancements, and modifications thereto. Some embodiments provide technological solutions that allow for rapid application prototyping, deployment, evaluation, testing, and the act of going live in a production environment. Some such embodiments provide applications including content and data, in the form of virtual appliance templates, that is pre-installed, pre-configured, pre-tested, and pre-loaded in a very rapid manner. Some embodiments may further allow for cloning of the instantiated application to another virtual computing environment, and utilization from that location on forward looking basis.
