Doing some reading on Enterprise Service Bus and came across this term ESBaaS (Enterprise Service Bus as a Service). Being familiar with SaaS(Software as a Service) and IssS (Integration as a Service), this really appealed to me and googled it and came across some good articles.
Please read John Savageau’s article on it here. Also, the authors idea for a government Cloud is quite interesting. Considering the fact that we have some governments who are in the process of providing EGovernment Services (i.e. exposing basic government functionalities on the web), this could be a good architectural decision for them. John’s article also has some links on ESB, check them out if you want to learn more about them.
Another article that talks about this is here. This article still says there is time for enterprises to move from their private clouds to public clouds, but predict that this concept will definitely catch on in the future.
Ill definitely be watching this and post more updates on them.
