Announcing TaskServer, the world’s first Business Process Server. TaskServer is a new class of XML and web based software for Business Process Automation (BPA), Enterprise Application Integration (EAI), Web Services Integration (WSI), and business process specific collaboration.

TaskServer is a Business Process Server. Developers of applications and web services who want to incorporate BPA, EAI and collaboration functionality can do so at a fraction of the usual time and cost. This is similar to the situation when an application utilizes a database server to manage its data - it would be prohibitively expensive for the application to build the data management functionality without the use of a database server. Similarly, it has been very costly to build BPA, EAI and collaboration features into applications, at least until now. TaskServer resolves that problem.

TaskServer’s XML architecture is ideal for implementing the power of BPA and EAI into web services that require human fulfillers or need to communicate with other applications and systems. TaskServer can be used to seamlessly integrate multiple web services, applications and human work groups into a single business process.

TaskServer provides facilities that allow fulfillers of a specific business process to collaborate online to resolve issues thus eliminating the need for expensive and time-consuming meetings. All this is accomplished through simple drag and drop technology.

You don’t have to be a software developer to benefit from TaskServer. Straight out of the box, it can be used to automate business processes without writing a single line of code. If that is not enough, TaskServer's ASP architecture enables small and medium size organizations to participate in, and benefit from, Business Process Automation, which has been, until now, an exclusive club limited to large corporations who can afford the typical six figure entry fee. ASP architecture means a small monthly fee and no up front large investment. This is expected to spur the dramatic growth of BPA since organizations small and large alike can inexpensively implement a pilot program to evaluate BPA, or deploy a full-fledged production system.
