Enterprises must have an application integration strategy and a comprehensive middleware infrastructure to meet the growing needs of modern business. Click on the links below to learn how businesses are streamlining their internal processes and integrating their systems using Business Components deployed over an Enterprise Service Bus.

Fundamental Integration Patterns
All application integrations fall into one of the following three patterns: database consistency relationships, multi-step processes and composite application patterns. Developers need to understand all three basic integration patterns use one (or more) of them as required based on the requirements of the final application.

The Modern Approach - Business Components plugged into an Intelligent Connectivity Fabric
Modern business applications are assembled by combining a set of reusable, independently developed business components. Business Component Architecture offers several advantages over traditional application design approaches.

The Enterprise Service Bus - Key Middleware for Business Components
An ESB is a middleware platform that supports intelligent routing of information between business components distributed across a network. Unlike other platforms, ESBs support both request/ reply as well as event-driven interactions between business components on a single technology base with a shared component model and common tools for design, development, deployment, security and administration.
