The Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) Delivering SOAs
As SOA becomes the prevailing model for enterprise infrastructures, unique architectural challenges need to be mastered in order to fully enjoy the capabilities SOA provides. SOA infrastructure must support operational flexibility, a heterogeneous application ...
ESB Myth Busters: 10 Enterprise Service Bus Myths Debunked
Since releasing my latest book, Enterprise Service Bus (O'Reilly Media, 2004), I have been doing a fair amount of visiting corporations, conducting seminars, and generally discussing with enterprise architects the subject of enterprise service-oriented architectur...
ESB Integration Patterns
The past several years have seen some significant technology trends, such as service-oriented architecture (SOA), enterprise application integration (EAI), business-to-business (B2B), and Web services. These technologies have attempted to address the challenges ...
Service-Oriented Integration: Making the Right Choices to Support Next-Generation Integration
This session examines the three leading choices for supporting service-oriented integration: enterprise service buses (ESBs), integration brokers, and application suite platforms. Making the right architectural decisions, Dave Chappell shows, is absolutely vital...
WS-ReliableMessaging Interop Summit - Publicly Available Meeting Notes
I recently attended the WS-ReliableMessaging Interop fest, hosted by IBM. IBM has published the results. The publishing of the results is something that the legal agreement allows the spec authors to do. A public version of the legal agreement and the test scena...
Reconstructing J2EE-Java Business Integration Meets the Enterprise Service Bus
Web services have given newfound importance to service-oriented architectures and promise to drive down the cost of integration by providing a standards-based approach to interoperability between applications. The trouble is, what people really want is a new way o...
Message-Centric Web Services vs RPC-Style Web Services
Message-centric vs RPC-style Web services is a long-standing debate and bone of contention regarding the proper use of Web services technologies. Early renditions of SOAP and XML-RPC were all about providing RPC-style interactions...in fact, that's all that was ...
The New Integration Architect: You
According to Gartner, Inc., vice president and research fellow Roy Schulte, 'a new form of enterprise service bus (ESB) infrastructure will be running in most major enterprises by 2005.' ESBs combine Web services, enterprise messaging, transformation, and routin...
Asynchronous Web Services
In a recent 'Strategic Planning' research note, Gartner issued a prediction that 'by 2004, more than 25 percent of all standard Web services traffic will be asynchronous....' and 'by 2006, more than 40 percent of the standard Web services traffic will be asynchronous.'
JAXM: Interoperable SOAP Communications for the Java Platform
The Java API for XML Messaging (JAXM) is a new Java application programming interface (API) that provides a standard way for Java applications to send and receive Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) messages. The basic idea is to allow developers to spend more...
Beyond The JMS Specification
The Java Message Service (JMS) is a specification put forth by Sun to define a common set of APIs and common semantics for messaging-oriented middleware providers. An increasing number of MOM vendors have embraced this specification, and new vendors are building m...
Distributed Logging Using The JMS
Every software system has logging requirements so application processing can be monitored and tracked. Modern distributed systems, which are usually based on application frameworks, require a logging solution that can cope with multiple processes on multiple hos...
Guaranteed Messaging With JMS
The notion of guaranteed delivery of Java Message Service messages has been lightly touched on in other recently published articles on JMS. But what really makes a JMS message 'guaranteed'? Should you just take it on faith, or would you like to know what's behind it?
A Real-World Example
Last month 'The JavaMessage Service and XSLT for E-Business Messaging' (XML-J, Vol. 2, issue 2) explored the concept of using JMS as the basis of a communications architecture for transporting XML data between applications and an XSLT translation engine for tran...
Benchmarking JMS-Based E-Business Messaging Providers
Benchmarking any distributed computing middleware product is a complex task. Knowing how well a distributed infrastructure will perform under heavy load with a large number of concurrently connected users is a key factor in planning a development and deployment strategy.
The Java Message Service
The Java Message Service (JMS) is an enterprise-capable middleware component based on message-oriented middleware (MOM) fundamentals. Since its introduction as a Java software specification in November 1998, vendor implementations have brought JMS forward as a f...
