Agenda

• Connected Business – Integration Aspects

• WSO2 ESB in a nutshell • Retrospect - WSO2 ESB in 2013 • Cloud Connectors • RESTful Integration made easy• New Features and Enhancements • Enhanced Tooling Support • WSO2 Integration Platform • Roadmap

Building A ‘Connected Business’

• Building an internally integrated enterprise / externally integrated enterprises

Building A ‘Connected Business’

• ‘Integration’ plays a vital role.

Glimpse of Modern Enterprises

• Dynamic/Diverse Business Requirements

• No single vendor/No single solution • Legacy Systems – Cannot get rid of

them?• Cloud APIs

Point to Point/Spaghetti Integration

• Scalability, maintainability, troubleshooting?

ESB as the Integration Bus

WSO2 ESB in a Nutshell

• A light weight, high performance ESB

• Configuration driven • REST, SOAP, WS-* support • SAP, FIX, HL7 support • Extensible and Scalable

EIP Support

• Fully Support all the standard EIPs [1]

Retrospect - WSO2 ESB in 2013

• WSO2 ESB 4.6● Revolutionized the ESB performance

WSO2 ESB 4.7 ● Comprehensive RESTful Integration support

• WSO2 ESB 4.8 – (GA mid-Nov 2013)● Introducing ‘Cloud Connectors’

WSO2 ESB – Cloud Connectors

• The foundation of ‘Cloud to Cloud’ and ‘Cloud to Enterprise’ Integration

• Connecting disparate Cloud APIs, mobile and on-premise systems

WSO2 ESB – Cloud Connectors

• ‘Cloud to Cloud’ Integration

WSO2 ESB – Cloud Connectors

• ‘Cloud to Enterprise’ Integration

Cloud Connector Architecture

• A cloud connector simplifies the invocation of any cloud api and hides all the low level invocation details.

• Self Contained and independent from ESB code

• Can be dynamically plug in to ESB • Can be implemented with

● ESB config language(as templates) ● an existing Java Library ● Java Script

Cloud Connector Architecture

• Dynamic ESB Configuration

RESTful Integration made easy

• Comprehensive RESTful Integration support

● Nouns and Verbs – HTTP Endpoint, Header Mediator

● Data Formats – Payload Factory (XML/JSON)

Better JSON Support

• JSON Transformations● Payload Factory supports all possible combinations

of JSON and XML transformations

JSON CBR High Performance JSON parsing

Message Mediation Enhancements

• Call Mediator● Blocking service calls on top of non-blocking HTTP

transport ● Simplifies the Service Orchestration scenarios ● Used in Cloud Connectors ● Equivalent performance to the Send Mediator

Respond and LoopBack Mediators

Store and Forward

• Complete Revamp of Message Store and Processors

● Multiple Consumers (Processors) for a given store● Guaranteed Delivery for RESTful Integration● Supports security, sampling and error codes

WSO2 ESB Graphical Editor

• WSO2 Developer Studio
