Abstract:
In this presentation, we'll look at the topic of Federated ESBs - how to
join together services from different business domains. We'll discuss the
history so far of SOA and ESBs and why Federated ESBs are needed. In
particular, we'll look at IBM's Service Federation Management technology,
part of WebSphere Service Registry and Repository, discuss how it aims to
help create a Federated ESB architecture, and how it works - what it does
and does not do. We'll show a brief demo of how it can be used, and discuss
the current feature set and product support. We'll close with an invitation
for feedback on SFM and Federated ESBs.
