What is an ESB??

An Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) is a flexible connectivity infrastructure for integrating applications and services. An ESB can power your Services Oriented Architecture (SOA) by reducing the number, size, and complexity of interfaces between those applications and services.

An ESB performs the following:

·         Routing messages between services
·         Converting transport protocols between requester and service
·         Transforming message formats between requester and service
·         Handling business events from disparate sources 
An ESB should allow your organization to focus on your core business needs rather that the IT Infrastructure required connecting the programs together. An ESB should allow you to add new services, or make changes to existing services, with little or no impact to the use of existing services.
