Pega Platform

 
 

Pega application platform

The Pega Platform provides a single, unified platform with everything you need to build or modify enterprise applications. Business and IT stakeholders work together, using visual models to capture business requirements. With no coding required, Pega Platform automatically generates the application and its documentation.

Model-based application design and development

You use visual, form-based definition of application components in a model-based approach. No coding required. Application architects can see where application components are placed and how each piece is leveraged by the rest of the application. By improving the visibility architects have to the overall application design, all team members can communicate more effectively about the impact of new or modified requirements. Team members can also identify potential gaps. As a result, updating processes, user interfaces, and other business rules is easier

Pega platform user roles

Case participants are the business users of the application, processing and closing cases.

There are two groups of case participants:  

1. Case workers are responsible for creating, viewing, and working on their own cases and assignments. A case worker cannot monitor or manage work among other case workers, or view work statistics. 
2. Case managers are responsible for working on cases and monitoring work group status, goals, and deadlines. Case managers are also responsible for generating work manager reports.

Case designers are part of the delivery team responsible for designing and building business applications. Case designers use Pega’s design time portals, Pega Express and Designer Studio.
There are two groups of case designers: 

1. Business architects, the first group of case designers, work with case participants and other stakeholders to define business objectives and application requirements. BAs plan application behavior to address the business objectives and requirements with specifications. These specifications describe how the application manages and automates work.
2. System architects, the second group of case designers, provide the technical skills needed to complete the application. SAs configure application assets such as User Interface (UI) forms, automated decisions, and correspondence. SAs then review the application with business stakeholders for approval.
