Java Business Integration (JBI) is an effort focused on standardizing the core architecture elements of integration architectures. It is a specification developed under the Java Community Process (JCP) for an approach to implementing a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA). The JCP reference is JSR-208. JBI extends Java EE and Java SE with business integration service provider interfaces (SPIs). It enables the creation of a Java business integration environment for the creation of composite applications. It defines a standard runtime architecture for assembling integration components to enable a SOA in an enterprise information system. Open ESB is an open source integration platform based on JBI technology. It implements an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) using JBI as the foundation. This allows easy integration of Web Services to create loosely coupled, enterprise-leve... (more)

Web Services Using ColdFusion and Apache CXF

Since its emergence, Web Service technology has gone a long way towards perfecting itself and finding its right application in the real world. With the maturity of the specifications, Web Service technology, with its power of interoperability, is now the major enabling technology of SOA, which is being adopted by more and more enterprises to build their application integration infrastructure. Developing Web Services involves a variety of technologies, XML processing, SOAP, and WSDL, to name a few. Luckily, there are frameworks that target handling theses kinds of middleware func...

AOP, IoC, and OO Design Patterns Without Frameworks

I'd like to share some of the design highlights of a large-scale content distributing system I worked on a while back. Some of the highlights may seem trivial; some may be a little more complicated. To me, software design is a matter of finding a balance between applying available technologies and fulfilling real-world requirements and constraints. The goal of design is always to ensure both the runtime and development-time quality of the software. I'll be using two of the components from the project, Scheduling Management Component (SMC) and the Data Access Layer (DAL), for pur... (more)
