OpenESB: Past, Present and Future

1. What is OpenESB?
An open source Standards based (JSR
208) ESB easier to install, configure, use,
manage and maintain than most other
ESBs in the market.
Evolution
What happened to OpenESB after Oracle acquisition of Sun?
Oracle acquired Sun Microsystems and pulled out development support for OpenESB but it lived! That’s why people
love Open source. Community got united and took the responsibility to ensure a long healthy life ahead. After a lot of
FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, Doubt), OpenESB is still alive and prospering in the hands of enthusiastic community
members.

Customer decisions/plans Future Roadmap
 Fuji is not ready for prime time any time soon.  Monitoring Tools
 A lot of Runtime work required.  Additional SE (Drools, Camel, IEP,…)
 The design time work for web based project  Additional BC (Legacy application IMS, CICS,…)
implementation/IFL/… are quite extensive  Fuji / OSGI
 Oracle Fusion is quite heavy weight, still not mature  Reduce dependency to Glassfish and Netbeans
in certain areas and for many organizations cost  Support Additional App servers: Jboss,…
prohibitive and not desirable due to vendor lock in
 Stay on OpenESB v2.1/v2.2 and retain Support from
Oracle and remain on OpenESB v2.1/v2.2?!!! Why OpenESB is attractive
 Obtain Support from other vendors that provide Easy to install
current support for OpenESB v2.1/v2.2/v2.3 and Easy to understand
forward versions? Very easy to use
Far beyond the other open source
 Delay the decision to migrate to another platform
projects: Jboss ESB ,Service Mix,
for a couple of years and let the
Mulesource,…
market/products/projects/vendors play out?
Binds with:
The best java IDE Netbeans 6.x
Excellent integration with Glassfish 2.x
And a very warm welcome to you to our next Summit
