The Enterprise Service Bus - Redefining the Economics of Integration
A Manager's Guide to the business benefits of an Enterprise Service Bus
Executive Summary
The Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) is a new paradigm in distributed application integration, with a Service-Oriented Application Architecture (SOA) deployed over a standards-based, JMS-Compliant Enterprise Class Messaging Backbone - enabling a true end-to-end enterprise solution. In an era of doing more with less, the ESB enables the next wave of service-oriented, comprehensive and affordable solutions that unify converging Web Services and EAI solutions within an enterprise.
This document discusses how the Enterprise Service Bus now offers a proven second alternative that protects current investments and offers a migratory path to the next generation of solutions (low risk/ high returns).
