Enterprise Integration with WSO2 ESB

Rate this book
In Detail

The Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) serves as a key component in most of the enterprise grade deployments. In most cases, the ESB removes point-to-point dependencies in your system to build a highly-scalable, loosely-coupled solution. ESB is a key ingredient to build an SOA infrastructure, but it's not a must. Even with an ESB, if industry best practices and patterns are not followed, users will end up in a mess. This book will teach you the essentials to get started with WSO2 ESB and solve the most commonly-faced integration problems.

The book starts by explaining the need for an ESB and the problems it solves. It will cover the most widely-used enterprise integration patterns, including Content Based Router, Dynamic Router, Splitter, Aggregator, Scatter & Gather, Publish & Subscribe, Detour, Service Chaining, Content Enricher and Message Broker. Learn how WSO2 ESB can bring third-party business messaging systems such as SAP, FIX, and HL7 into the SOA world, as well as how to integrate the Twitter connector into your business messaging flow.

Approach

Providing background on the “when and why” of the topic, then diving into practical, instruction-based examples called “recipes”, where each recipe will explain how to address a given challenge in enterprise integration.

Who this book is for

If you are an architect or a developer, keen on building solutions to solve enterprise integration problems, this is the book for you! Understanding of SOA design concepts, SOAP, REST, and related messaging systems is important. However, you are not expected to be an advanced user of WSO2 ESB.

In just a few pages (about 90) are enclosed all the necessary arguments to provide the basis for the implementation of solutions to the most common problems of integration in enterprise environments.

This book is well organized into five main chapters covering the most common Enterprise Integration Patterns (EIP), all chapters have the same organizational structure, ideal for this kind of book, where the reader needs to understand with little effort, as has reached its target. The structure of the chapters is as follows:

* Getting Ready: This section takes a look at a possible scenario in which the Enterprise Integration Patterns in question can be placed;
* How to do it: This section explains how to implement and execute the integration scenario on WSO2 ESB;
* How it works: This section explains the role of each component of WSO2 ESB used to implement the integration solution;

If I were a reader who for the first time approaches WSO2 ESB, in the first chapter, after the general introduction to the Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), I would have included the contents of Appendix A (WSO2 ESB Terminology).

On several occasions I got to use WSO2 ESB to the implementation of some integration projects, and this book can help you finally check in quickly and easily the potential offered by this product. Would remind you that each integration solution shown in the book is absolutely verifiable by yourself, you can download the archive containing all the examples and follow the simple instructions in each section of each chapter "How it works".

For those who believe that open source is the cream, wso2 is certainly the cherry on it. The recipe is extremely simple: Take Apache top notch industry leading solutions, mix it with an incredible innovative approach and you get an amazing suite of production grade products that turn the most complicated, time and cost consuming engineering tasks into a walk in the park.
With ESB being one of the most important middle-ware tasks, this book is a great source of information to ESB beginners, advanced users seeking to explore best practices, performance and security optimization, and anyone who wishes to get familiar with the philosophy of wso2 Carbon, the common denomination of all its middle-ware superb servers that redefine development efficiency. It is certainly one open source leading solution provider any serious developer and architect cannot afford not to at least consider.

Good resource for EIP

The book describes WSO2 and briefly describes how to install it. Linux installs are described. The book's main topic would be all of ESB design patterns that are described and implemented.
