Choosing between Routing and Orchestration in an ESB

Follow @cmoulliard The goal of this interesting article is to help ESB users choose the right answer according to their needs, when confronted with the most complex and diverse of ESB concepts: routing and orchestration.

Instead of abstract theorizing we will ground our efforts and reasoning in simple, real-world examples in an attempt to fill the void between low-level routing and global, business service orchestration. In other words: We will try to uncover how the different layers of routing and orchestration build up.

Even if the solution used to make the design is a ESB based on JBI specification --> Petals, the publication provides a clear presentation of the concepts and help the architect to choose.
