In the Insta-age of agility, OpenUP is where you want to be if you’re in the process business.

What is OpenUP?

OpenUP is a lean Unified Process that applies iterative and incremental approaches within a structured lifecycle. OpenUP embraces a pragmatic, agile philosophy that focuses on the collaborative nature of software development. It is a tools-agnostic, low-ceremony process that can be extended to address a broad variety of project types.

OpenUP layers: micro-increments, iteration lifecycle and project lifecycle

Why?

• Because it is the closest thing to a process that is universally available, self-sustainable, industry founded and baselined
• Why Again?
  • Process becomes insta(inter/intra plug & play)
    • a framework that facilitates intra/inter organizational communication(s)

With the Eclipse framework and fine tutorial material you can have a tailored process up and running, PUBLISHED ON-LINE, very quickly or less that is bus-tech optimized.

That’s adoptable.  

Need more tech, just reach into Rational Unified Process and process model yourself to heaven; (or hell).  And, it’s open source.  With this framework, you plug and play into a cosmos of integration and process friendly platforms.
