Transform traditional OSS by using SOA and BPM

With the emergence of new business and the change of customers´ needs, the traditional OSS gradually can´t response to all of these. It cost much to develop a new business, and can´t quickly adjust the existing business to meet the change of the market´s needs. So how to change this situation? Now, SOA became more and more popular with system designers and integration staff, and BPM breaks the limits among department, system and individual, promoting the traditional artificial work to be replaced by the computer automation. This paper proposes a method to transform the traditional OSS to a flexible and extendable system by bringing in SOA and BPM. In a word, it uses SOA to construct the infrastructure of OSS by using Web Service to wrap functions to services; it use BPM to develop and manage business by combining services to processes. So it can easily manage the existing business and develop new business; it could quickly response to the changes of the market, and it can meet diverse needs of customers.
