Jacques, the SOA/ESB approches is great in complex big scenario (from software and organizational point of view), optimal for a Bank or Telco provider, regarding the specific problem we can totally controll more variable and target customer is little and Middle entreprise: Jpuzzle is owned by us, ofBiz isOpen, both written in a Java DB and server neutral, the interaction is essencially one-to-one (so the BUS would collapses in a direct connection)
So the idea is use lighter approach, ligher in CPU usage and ligher in term of speeding up devlopment. Just to enumerate to possibility: 1) Jpuzzle call ofbiz Service Using webservice, why not RMI? 2) Jpuzzle "listen" JMS event using JMS. 3) We can develop a Jpuzzle Adapter so Obfiz Module can talk internally to him like an other ofbiz module, talking to Jpuzzle using webservice or why not, a lighter approc like RMI / JSON-RPC ? What is your opinion? Thank Olindo 2009/9/25 Jacques Le Roux <[email protected]> > Apache ServiceMix : nothing but time to invest > http://servicemix.apache.org/home.html.
