Progress Software SOA enterprise integration solution

Progress Software has released an SOA enterprise integration solution. The solution is intended to reduce the time it takes to deploy IT infrastructure and accelerate the time it takes to derive value from such infrastructure implementation.

The solution comprises the Progress Sonic Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) and the Progress DataXtend Semantic Integrator (SI).

Enterprises can use the pre-integrated Sonic ESB and DataXtend SI enterprise solution alone or combine it with the Progress Actional SOA management platform to deliver business services that will not impact their existing applications and use data semantics, end-to-end visibility and IT governance to remove the limitations of SOA.

In addition, DataXtend SI users have access to the Sonic ESB platform, with its improved visibility and impact analysis capabilities, for improved performance and data service scalability. By facilitating the visualisation of the interdependencies of service interactions or data exchanges, developers can make changes to critical integration applications, without negatively impacting their IT production systems.
