WSO2 Presents Chicago Workshop on WSO2 Integration Platform Discovery

One-day technical workshop on June 13, will explore how IT professionals can take advantage of an ESB model to optimize enterprise application integration

Palo Alto, CA – May 30, 2013 – Today, enterprise application integration (EAI) best practices are based on service-oriented architecture (SOA) principles and a flexible, highly capable enterprise service bus (ESB). In a one-day workshop for IT architects and developers, WSO2 will explore how to successfully implement a service broker pattern for connectivity, mediation, process orchestration, and security using an ESB model.

The “WSO2 Integration Platform Discovery” workshop will be held on Thursday, June 13, from 9:00 a.m. – 2:30 p.m., in Chicago, IL. For more information, visit: https://wso2.com/events/workshops/2013-june-chicago-wso2-integration-platform-discovery-workshop.

The Role of an ESB within an SOA

The workshop is designed for IT architects and developers seeking to obtain a high-level architectural understanding of how ESBs fit within an SOA. It will explore how enterprises can connect, mediate, orchestrate and manage interactions between application integration consumers and providers using WSO2 Enterprise Service Bus in conjunction with other components of the WSO2 Carbon enterprise middleware platform. Workshop session topics will include:

  • An overview of ESB architecture, the role of an ESB within an SOA, and the benefits of loosely coupled application architectures.
  • Understanding core ESB capabilities, including mediation, transformation, routing, messaging, queuing and eventing.
  • How to connect to services and APIs using lightweight JSON/XML, HTTP APIs, and adapters for the Health Level 7 (HL7) interface, Financial Information eXchange (FIX) protocol, SAP, Salesforce.com, and PayPal.
  • The role of an ESB in process orchestration, security, governance, complex event processing (CEP), and business activity monitoring (BAM).
