Enterprise Service Bus

(Erl, Little, Rischbeck, Simon)



Home > Common Compound Design Patterns > Enterprise Service Bus


Audio Podcast
This pattern is discussed as part of the audio podcast:

•  The ESB and Related
   Messaging Patterns

•  Versioning in SOA


An enterprise service bus represents an environment designed to foster sophisticated interconnectivity between services. It establishes an intermediate layer of processing that can help overcome common problems associated with reliability, scalability, and communications disparity.



Enterprise Service Bus is fundamentally comprised of the co-existent application of Asynchronous Queuing, Intermediate Routing, and Service Broker, and can be further extended via Reliable Messaging, Policy Centralization, Rules Centralization, and Event-Driven Messaging.
