Integration à la Apache (Englisch blurb)


An important challenge for enterprises is to externalize internal services by providing APIs.

In this case the service, which should be published as an API, must be created by an integration of a bunch of existing legacy systems. These systems, however, are very heterogeneous in terms of architecture, technology, and interfaces. Integration frameworks have to face this demands since they may disappear from market otherwise.
