Vitria has introduced analytics for business and operational performance, displaying results on a Web 2.0-style interface.

The M3O Operations Book complements the company's M3O product, a business process management suite aimed at blending process management and event processing. M3O and the new Operations Book provide a unified environment that Vitria says untrained business users can use to model, manage, monitor and optimize processes without help from IT.

M3O Operations Book leverages a Web 2.0-style interface in making it possible for business users to define KPIs and dashboards. This is accomplished through a WYSIWYG dashboard designer and predefined presentation widgets. Together the tools enable untrained business users to build complex analysis, correlate dependencies between data sources, and then connect the two to display the results in a graphical manner.

The software provides continuous analytics of business and operational data, as well as events and historical data. In addition, there's drill-down capabilities into individual business processes and associated events, as well as major third-party applications. The product's analytics capabilities include multi-dimensional analysis, correlation, pattern analysis, trending, and time-series analysis.

M3O Operations Book has a zero foot-print deployment and can be leveraged with the Vitria M3O Suite or Vitrial BusinessWare for a top-down view of an entire business process, the company said. The latest product, released this week, is also available as a stand-alone application, leveraging existing business process management deployments.
