The WSO2 ESB team is pleased to announce the release of version 2.0-beta3 of the Open Source Enterprise Service Bus (ESB).
WSO2 ESB is a lightweight and easy-to-use Open Source Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) available under the Apache Software License v2.0. WSO2 ESB allows administrators to simply and easily configure message routing, intermediation, transformation, logging, task scheduling, etc.. The runtime has been designed to be completely asynchronous, non-blocking and streaming based on the Apache Synapse core. WSO2 ESB 2.0-beta3 is developed on top of the revolutionary Carbon platform (Middleware a la carte'), and is based on the OSGi framework to achieve the better modularity for your SOA architecture. This also contains a lots of new features and many other optional components to customize the behavior of the server. Further, if you do not want any of the built in features, you can uninstall those features without any trouble. In other words, this ESB can be customized and hardened to your SOA needs.
