ChainBuilder ESB is an open-source SOA software that enables drag and drop graphical interfaces to create standards-based components.
What sets ChainBuilder ESB apart is its industry-standard editors that can manage EDI X12, HL7, fixed and variable formats and communication components for TCP/IP, FTP and file protocols, and database components for JMS and ETL integrations. These are the formats and protocols that growth-oriented organizations absolutely require.
Apart from the basic features, ChainBuilder ESB boasts an uncommon high-end open source toolset. A web interface, based on AJAX-based Console, for monitoring and controlling the production environment is typically only found with expensive proprietary systems.
Bostech Corporation ensures that ChainBuilder ESB is deployed with a dual-license distribution model. Enterprises and software vendors can opt for a commercial license and subscription support for customization and technical support. The focus and usability that goes into the making of ChainBuilder ESB make it an ideal Enterprise Service Bus software for those who require powerful SOA infrastructures.
