ESB

Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) is the software middleware

ESB acts as a mediator between different, often incompatible protocols and middleware products

ESB is the backbone of SOA You can't buy SOA, but you can buy an ESB

The role of ESB in SOA

Features of an ESB

• Web Services Support– ESB offers an ability to invoke SOAP and WSDL

based Web Services• Adapters

– Many ESB vendors will provide adapters to integrate with different thrd-part applications, such as PeopleSoft, SAP

– Used for applications which do not directly have SOAP or XML interface

• Invocation– ESB supports synchronous and asynchronous calls to

services and sometimes callbacks

Features of an ESB (Cont.)• Mediation and protocol independence

– Variety of protocols can be reconciled for complex route across a variety of platform

– Allows to connect with different protocols such as HTTP, FTP, SMTP, JDBC

• Routing– Allows us to route the messages to different services

based on their content, origin or other attributes• Transformation

– Data represented as XML can be transformed using XSLT or XQuery before they are delivered to services.

– Some ESB supports various XML, e.g. HL7, SWIFT

Features of an ESB (Cont.)

• Orchestration– Offers the ability to coordinate multiple services to

expose them as a single proxy service– Many ESBs delegate this functionality to a BPEL

engine• Security

– Provides additional security capabiulity, SSL, SAML• Control over the deployment, usage and

maintenance of services

ESB Features

Benefits of ESB

• Reduce time to integrate new and existing applicatioms

• Increase flexibility because system dependencies are reduced

• Simultaneous centralized management of services• Centralized management ability (e.g. BAM)• Encourage use of industry standard interface• Greater agility and responsiveness to change

ESB Differences

Heterogeneous ESBs

ESB Differences

• Point-to-Point Connection– consumer has to know the endpoint, it sends each request to

a specific receiver– The problem with this type of connection is that the call fails

if the physical receiver is not available.• Mediating Conenction

– identifies the provided service by a tag or symbolic that the ESB interprets to find an appropriate provider

– ESB plays the role of a mediator or broker

Point-to-Point Connection

Mediating Connection

Interceptor (based on Point-to-Point)

ESB Differences

• Protocol Driven ESB– the ESB defines a protocol, and the providers and consumers

send and receive messages according to this protoco– Example; Web Services, which require a SOAP protocol,

• API Driven ESB– the ESB defines platform-specific APIs (such as Java

interfaces), and the providers and consumers use these APIs for service implementations and service calls (see Connecting to an API-driven ESB).

Protocol-Driven ESB

API-Driven ESB

Commercial ESBs

• IBM WebSphere ESB • Sonic ESB• Oracle Service Bus• Software AG/WebMethods ESB• Microsoft Biztalk• TIBCO ActiveMatrix and BusinessWorks

Opensource ESB

• Mule• Apache ServiceMix• OpenESB (GlassFish v2)• Project Fuji (OpenESB v3)

What is JBI?

24

Why JBI?

• Many ESB products in the market• Each has its own pattern and specification• Each may use different protocols and different

forms of communication• Need different ways / patterns of implementation• Need a ESB standard to avoid vendor lock-in• The ideas is this: someone implements the spec and

then they can in turn implement engine that are pluggable within that container.

25

What is JBI?

• JBI (Java Business Integration) is a specification published by JCP (JSR 208)

• JBI is a message-based, pluggable meta-container• It is a container of containers.• JBI allows pluggable components to be added into

a standard architecture

What Is JBI?

• Standard “meta-container” for integrated services

• Provides for plug-in:– Service Engines (SE):

business logic– Binding Components:

communications protocols• Standard deployment /

Management model• Loose coupling via WSDL

message exchanges between WSDL described Services

JBI Architecture

Service Engines

• Sevice Engines (SEs) are JBI components that enable pluggable business logic

• SEs is a standard container for hosting WSDL-defined service providers as well as service consumers used internally by JBI

• Business Logic get deployed into SE• SE get installed into JBI runtime• OpenESB offers varous SEs

– BPEL SE– XSLT SE– JavaEE SE

Binding Components

• Binding Components (BCs) provides connectivity services to SE

• BCs offer protocol independence• BCs provide transport protocols for external

services• BCs converts a message that is bound to a specific

protocol or transport into the normalized protocols• Example BCs

– File, HTTP, FTP, SMTP, Database (JDBC)– CICS, DCOM, CORBA

Normalized Message Router

• NMR mediates the message exchange between Ses and Bcs within the framework

• NMR is the core of the bus• Allows services to interoperate by passing

messages between all the components• BC and SE are decoupled• NMR is bidirectional

JBI and Composite Application

Overview of Message Routing

JBI Runtime

JBI Portability Model

• Components should be portable (SEs and BCs)• Service units are not portable across SEs/BCs from

different vendors• Example: moving an application from OpenESB

toServiceMix– Install all Open ESB Service Engines and Binding

Components that you used, in ServiceMix– Deploy the application into ServiceMix's runtime

36

OpenESB & GlassFish

37

What is Open ESB?

• Project Open ESB implements an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) runtime using JBI as the foundation– This allows easy integration of web services to

create loosely coupled enterprise class composite applications.

• It also provides various tools for the development, deployment, and management of composite applications

JBI Support in GlassFish

• A JBI runtime has been integrated with GlassFish V2• GlassFish admin console now supports JBI• Java EE Service Engine act as the bridge between Java

EE applications and JBI• A Java EE application archive (ear/war/jar) can be

packaged in a JBI composite application• Expose JMX to tools• JBI runtime has been enhanced to adhere to the

appserver clustering architecture– Each instance in the appserver cluster will also have a JBI

runtime in it

JBI in Admin Console
