Summary form only given. Service-oriented architecture (SOA) has been proven to be a flexible and extensible architecture for designing and realizing industry solutions and applications. Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) is a hub for integrating different kinds of services through messaging, event handling, and business performance management. This tutorial will focus on a SOA solution framework; the critical role and value proposition of an ESB in SOA and Web services; ESB (and SOA) analysis and design methodology; best practices for the practical design and implementation of an ESB, including ESB design using the enterprise integration and application integration patterns; ESB and business process integration tools and techniques for ESB implementation; and performance, security and transaction management. This tutorial is based on numerous projects and solution architectures that the authors and colleagues have been engaged in the last 3 years in various industries, including government, financial, retail, electronics and distribution.
