This is the third in a series about the four styles of RPA (Robotic Process Automation) in OSS.
The second of those styles is Streamlining processes / tasks by following an algorithmic approach to simplify processes for operators.
These can be particularly helpful during swivel-chair processes where multiple disparate systems are partially integrated but each needs the same data (ie reducing the amount of duplicated data entry between systems). As well as streamlining the process it also improves data consistency rates.
The most valuable aspect of this style of RPA is that it can minimise the amount of integration between systems, thus potentially reducing solution maintenance into the future. The RPA can even act as the integration technique where an API isn’t available or documentation isn’t available (think legacy systems here).
Standing out in a highly saturated and fragmented OSS market can be really difficult. We’re regularly involved in bake-offs where we see dozens of OSS
