Our Overview

Singularity Partners is an industry leader for an enterprise services bus, with over 14 years of experience in assisting customers to take advantage of this key technology.

​

An enterprise service bus (ESB) acts as the communication center in a service-oriented architecture (SOA). It translates requests into the appropriate message types and routes them to the appropriate provider.

​

An Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) is an architectural pattern that supports virtualization and management of service interactions between a service provider and consumer. An ESB provides a layer of abstraction between the consumer and provider, with the mediation mapping the consumer request to the location of the real service implementation.

​

An ESB is a middleware solution that uses the service-oriented model to promote and enable interoperability between heterogeneous environments. There is no specification that defines exactly what an ESB is, or which functions it should provide. Even though an ESB is mostly associated with concepts like "mediation" and "integration," it is also suitable as a platform for providing services in a way that is similar to an application server. The ESB represents the consolidation of the product categories that are called "integration" and "application server.

​

Use of an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) is worth considering when three or more applications or services need to be integrated. A simple point-to-point integration is significantly easier and much more cost-effective when connecting two applications. An ESB can also be worthwhile if services are going to be incorporated from external service providers over which the company has no control.

​

If many different protocols, such as HTTP, SOAP, and FTP, are to be used and standardized to one protocol like SOAP, the ESB can perform the necessary protocol transformation.
