ChainBuilder ESB Version 1 descriptions ChainBuilder ESB is a new Java Business Integration compliant open source Enterprise Service Bus. ChainBuilder ESB allows IT developers with Service Oriented Architecture infrastructures to create standards-based ESB components through Eclipse-based graphical user interfaces. Most organizations SOAs need to include strategic backend systems that operate with non-XML data formats & non-WebServices communication protocols. Bostech focus on usability ensured the initial offerings of ChainBuilder ESB had industry standard editors to manage EDI X12 HL7 fixed & variable formats & communication components for TCP/IP FTP & file protocols - the formats & protocols that organizations with mature applications absolutely require. ChainBuilder ESB also has uncommon high-end open source features like an AJAX-based Console web interface for monitoring & controlling the production environment usually found only with expensive proprietary systems. Bostech Corporation is deploys a dual-license distribution model for ChainBuilder ESB. Developers can download the open source software under the common GPL license at our website. A commercial license is also available for use where GPL is not available & for partners who do not release source code for their applications.
