Built using Fiorano’s own ESB (Enterprise Service Bus), it provides peer-to-peer messaging, distributed BPEL-compliant business process management and visual tools, together with a model for coarse-grained Business Services. It supports both services and events on a single technology base with a shared component model and common tools for design, development, deployment, security and administration. Some of its notable features are:
- Composite Components – business components can be aggregated into larger reusable components (controlled using BPEL), which run in a single operating system process so providing performance improvements.
- Support for a range of new standards: BPEL/JCA/WS/J2EE/JMX.
- Improved throughput of JMS messages.
- Enhanced Simple/Distributed Transaction handling – support for simple and distributed transactions across multiple components within a single Composite Component.
- New Business Component Development Kit (BCDK) – a combination of Java libraries, implementing standard JMS, JCA, JMX interfaces, and an ant-based compilation framework for implementation and deployment of new Business Components. BCDK can also be integrated with Eclipse IDE.
- Shared Resource Pools – support for resource sharing across multiple instances of components running within a composite component.
