The Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) is a standards-based integration platform that reduces the cost and complexity of integrating applications and data, and enables the rapid delivery of new composite online services.

What's been missing, until now, is the ability to rapidly combine and orchestrate services into new high-level business services. However, with the inclusion of integrated BPEL-based service orchestration, the Enterprise Service Bus now enables sophisticated business process modelling, enabling you to more easily align your IT environment with your existing business processes.

In this webinar you will learn about:

• The evolution of the application integration market and Web services, and the advent of the Enterprise Service Bus
• Why an ESB was the technology of choice for Pearson Education to help solve critical business integration and business process issues
• Key functionality and capabilities of the Enterprise Service Bus

You will hear feature presentations from and participate in live Q&A with:

Mike Gilpin, Vice President and Research Director, Forrester Research.

Ramana Mantravadi, CTO Pearson Education Central Media Group, Pearson Education.

Annrai O'Toole, CEO, Cape Clear Software.
