Hello Rajesh, Hello Marq,
Appologies if I have got the name wrong.
If you want a general suggestion about a better EAI or a tool for creating good components for realizing SOA, JBOSS ESB is a good choice. I personally feel JBOSS ESB to be really flexible. I have just finished replacing an exisiting EAI(VITRIA) with JBOSS ESB for one of our client. We have used JBOSS ESB. excepting for one Issue , the development and the deploiyment was smooth.
1. Runs on an amazing spplication server platform JBOSS: Why ? If you dont need any of their services just remove them off or unplug them . Causes a relatively low memory foot print.
2. I also found that there was a decrease in the overall time taken for data processing by atleast 20-30% (in terms of time taken) (Data from Production) (Financial Transaction where data loss is considered next to Sin)
- considering the fact that every day our Batch jobs creates atleast a million + transactions within few hours. JBOSS handled this like charm.
- Very High Concurrent Transaction rate : Sorry - Dont have the numbers here.
3. It of course is scalable. scalable by infrastructure and scalable by data capacity.
4. Data Intensiveness depends on how well you can handle the design. Probably Jai, Tom or Mark would be able to answer your question more precisely.
Hope this Helps
Best Regards,
