Create a Living Process in ARIS Process Mining

Your process mining project has delivered valuable insights and uncovered improvement opportunities. The next step is to embed process mining into your organization’s daily operations by establishing living connections to your transactional and analytical platforms.

This advisory service supports your team with the design, installation, and configuration activities needed to enable direct, incremental, and secure connectivity through five supported options:

1.Process Extractor – JDBC
Seamlessly connect ARIS Process Mining to leading enterprise databases (e.g., Oracle, MS SQL, PostgreSQL) for continuous, incremental insights.

2. Process Extractor – SAP
Unlock end-to-end visibility by integrating directly with SAP ECC or S/4HANA systems for real-time process monitoring.

3. Data Ingestion API
Gain maximum flexibility by streaming process data directly from staging layers, data lakes, or existing ETL pipelines into ARIS Process Mining.

4. Process Extractor – Databricks & Azure Data Lake
Harness the power of cloud-scale analytics by integrating with Databricks and Azure Data Lake to mine insights from modern data platforms.

5. HTTP Extractor
Extend your reach to SaaS solutions and web services with secure, configurable extraction from REST APIs and HTTP endpoints—supporting both scheduled and incremental updates.

By selecting one or more of these connectivity options, your organization can achieve sustainable, continuous process mining and move closer to operational excellence.

What are the benefits of this offer?

• Expert advisory guidance on the design, installation, and configuration of JDBC, SAP, API, Databricks/Data Lake, or HTTP Extractors.
• Accelerated transition from batch to continuous process mining using your preferred data connectivity option(s).
• Best practices for governance, authentication, and secure connectivity across all supported options.
• A scalable, enterprise-wide connectivity architecture for incremental process data extraction.
• Hands-on enablement so your team can independently maintain and extend connectivity.

Scope and Topics

Kick-Off & planning
Define success criteria, select preferred data connectivity option(s).

Architecture design
High-level connectivity and security design for JDBC, SAP, API, Databricks/Data Lake, or HTTP.

Implementation & configuration
Guided installation and configuration of the chosen extractor(s).

Validation & knowledge transfer
Test incremental refreshes, validate data, and document the solution.

How it works

Kick-off workshop to align goals, select connectivity option(s), and agree on engagement plan.

Workshops & working sessions:

Key assumptions

1. The customer has an active ARIS Process Mining environment (SaaS or On-Prem) with required licenses.
2. The customer has executed an initial ARIS Process Mining activation (e.g., via Fast Track Service) or has a working CSV-based solution in place.
3. Source system experts (DBA, SAP basis, API/data owners, etc.) are available to provide access, credentials, and technical details for the selected connectivity option(s).
4. Data guardian approval is obtained for the transfer of transactional or analytical data into ARIS Process Mining.
5. Network access, firewall rules, and connectivity prerequisites (e.g., JDBC drivers, SAP RFC destinations, API tokens, Databricks/HTTP credentials) are made available prior to
   the engagement.
6. The customer provides test and production environments (where applicable) for validation of data extraction.
7. Any required ETL/data preparation tooling (outside of ARIS-provided extractors and APIs) is the responsibility of the customer.
8. All activities will be conducted in English unless otherwise agreed in writing.
9. Services will be delivered during standard business days and hours as defined in ARIS Professional Services Terms and Conditions.
