Sonic ESB is an industry-leading application integration framework that provides exceptional performance, reliability, and security. Its service-based architecture supports the deployment of discrete applications (services) that exchange messages according to sophisticated automated workflow processes. It also supports the exposure of deployed applications as standard Web services that can process requests sent through HTTP or HTTPS (HTTP/S) from any compliant client application external to the Sonic ESB.
The OpenEdge Adapter for Sonic ESB enables AppServer applications to participate as services on the Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) and take part in workflow processes managed by the Sonic ESB. The OpenEdge Adapter for Sonic ESB supports two distinct methodologies:
Native Invocation methodology
Web Service Invocation
Note: Prior to OpenEdge Release 10.1C, the Web Service Invocation methodology was the only available option.
