Key Facts
Slide 4 CaaS – Capability as a Service in Digital Enterprises
The capabilities of an enterprise represent one factor that often determines competitive advantage and provides business value. Capabilities refer to essential functions of the enterprise that link business goals to business processes, resources and actors. These capabilities are mapped onto IT solutions, such as software services that in turn are delivered to customers.
Aligning an enterprise’s capabilities to the provision of its services is far from being a straightforward task, especially nowadays where the dominance and volatility of the Internet shifts the problem solving focus, from upfront predictable designs to identifying and capitalising on emerging and instantaneous business opportunities.
Operating in the modern digital business world increases the importance of business agility. It is essential for modern information systems to have the capability to constantly deliver business value depending on ever changing context situations. Examples of such dynamic context are an enterprise’s business model, business rules, regulation and legislation, location, resource pricing and demand forecast as well as user preferences
and past activities.
Motivation
Slide 5 CaaS – Capability as a Service in Digital Enterprises
The main goal of the CaaS project is to bring about a shift from the service-oriented paradigm to a capability delivery paradigm. To this end, the CaaS project will deliver the Capability Driven Development (CDD) approach that will allow digital enterprises to exploit the notion of capability as a means of both service design and service operation. CDD will comprise
modelling languages for representing enterprise designs, context models, and patterns,
a methodology for detailing how capabilities may be specified and how these may be used for designing new services,
reusable best practices and capability delivery patterns, algorithms for dealing with business context awareness and service re-
configuration, a tool environment for modelling, design and delivery, and a set of case studies demonstrating the applicability of the CDD approach.
The project is driven by three use cases from different business domains that act as a means of guiding, validating, and revising the CDD approach.
