Great questions.
I have some difficulties in comparing WSAS & ESB:
-could/should they be used together ?
Yes. We have a lot of customers using both - especially the combination
of Data Services and ESB.
-is the one a kind of "superset" of the other one, i.e. is WSAS using ESB or
vice-versa ?
Not really. Both are using Axis2, Axiom, Rampart, and other shared
components. There are some ways that we allow you to use them together
in the same JVM (for example it is possible to use Synapse as a module
inside WSAS) and we are looking at expanding those ways... keep your
eyes out later in the year!
-in which cases should I use WSAS and in which cases ESB ?
Use WSAS for hosting services, ESB for mediating, transforming, routing.
That is a simple example, but if you can give a clearer view of your
requirements we can help more. For example, if you gave a scenario, we
could split it into ESB and WSAS.
Regards
Paul
