1. A method of customizing a software implemented business process, comprising:

  • providing an agent that instantiates and calls a service, based on a service identifier in response to a request to perform an operation, wherein the service identifier is stored as service identifier metadata in a metadata store associated with the service, and wherein the business process includes a service factory invoked by the agent, wherein the service factory is configured to access the metadata and call the service identified by the service identifier; and

    customizing the service identifier metadata, used by the agent, to identify a customized service by storing a delta value indicative of the customized service identifier metadata in a customization store, and when the agent is subsequently invoked, customizing the service identifier with the delta value prior to the service factory accessing the metadata.
