Let me add my thoughts to the discussion as I have come across the same question. First, there is cost. Commercial ESB is very expensive, whereas WSIF is free. But most IT organizations I know, have already purchased ESB, so it's a mute point. Second, ESB as pointed out below is so much more functionality (repository, client access over any protocol, monitoring, security, asynchronous call outs to other services in the pipe, etc.) than WSIF that it is indeed as Alek pointed out like comparing Apples to Oranges. So, if you have a small nail (client access to a service independent of protocol) of course bringing a HUGE hammer like ESB will do the job. But then, be careful with your fingers!

I agree that ESB and WSIF are not the same but one could easily ask himself : Do I need a full scale solution like ESB or do I need only a client-side connecting facility ? WSIF gives the opportunity to use a service repository (your code) without compromising your calling code (your client). ESB offers this feature over SOAP (almost all of them) and allow you to deploy whatever service you want behind the ESB access. And to do a lot more ! security, transformation, monitoring, etc. So one should ask himself do I ONLY need to make my client "service implementation independent" ? if the answer is definitely yes then WSIF is eligible. If you have doubts or if you know you must go farther, go look for a nice ESB and be prepare to set up a full grade server solution best, Cyril Aleksander Slominski a écrit : Andre P. wrote: Hello everyone. Will ESB (or have it already) embody the WSIF functionalities? Why should I use WSIF instead of an ESB (or vice-versa)? i think it completely depend on use case and comparing ESB and WSIF is a bit like oranges and apples - WSIF is just a client side library - ESBs typically imply whole system - that is my .01c best, alek -- Cyril Rognon Responsable Capitalisation +33 1 55 93 36 87 +33 6 08 89 16 86 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 268, avenue du Président Wilson 93210 LA PLAINE-SAINT-DENIS Std : +33 1 55 93 26 00 - Fax : +33 1 55 93 26 01 "SQLI Consulting, l'expert du conseil IT" www.sqli.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ce message et toutes les pièces jointes (ci-après le "message") sont confidentiels et établis à l'intention exclusive de ses destinataires.
