Organizations are moving applications and infrastructure to servers on the Internet at an increasingly rapid rate and Cloud Computing – or whatever you call it – is changing the way people access information as well as they way they work and play.

Migrating to an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) is a bigger decision than many companies realize. It creates the opportunity for central management and access points for all the services available in the enterprise. When determining the need and the method for enabling an ESB for services, there are several important considerations.

Over the past decade, we have learned that the challenge of building service-oriented solutions is less about technology and more about solving real-world business problems. Enterprise architects realize that any solution must revolve around an organization’s business processes, IT infrastructure, policies, and standards, and it makes sense that many aspects of service design will revolve around those key areas.
