PEGA is a platform that provides a systematic approach to building and deploying a process-oriented and rule-based solution and application. Business process management, Customer relationship management, Decision management solutions and case management solutions are some of the examples in which the process and rules are an integral part of the development application. What PEGA provides to the developer is a design studio that acts as an integrated development environment (IDE) for creating the Application. The best part is a designer's studio, based on a web developer who can work and create solutions from anywhere in the world.
The focus of PEGA is processes. If you plan to learn PEGA or if you are already working with PEGA tools, you should keep this in mind: "The process is king, queen and everything in PEGA." Each business solution is process oriented.
Technically, PEGA is not a language or database or operating system. What PEGA provides us with is a process-driven framework; everything that we do in traditional programs, such as designing user interfaces, writing business logic, application logic, creating the physical and logical mode of databases, etc. we do the same in PEGA. The difference between PEGA and traditional programming is that in PEGA to create or develop something (user interface, data access logic, validation rules, etc.) there are processes and gadgets that we must use.
At the heart of PEGA is the PRPC server (PegaRULES Process Commander®) which provides a platform and interfaces for business intelligence, systems for analysts and developers to develop and create applications in PEGA. PEGA focuses on work automation and program code.
The PRPC server is written in Java. To configure the PRPC server to work smoothly, we need an operating system, a Java application server, a database, and a Java JDK.
PEGA is a BPM tool. BPM stands for Business Process Management. The current version of the PRPC server is v6.2 sp2
