In the current enterprise scenario, empowering business
users to react quickly to the rapidly changing business environment is the top most
priority. With the advent of composite applications the 'reuse' paradigm has moved
from the technical aspect to the business aspect. You no longer re-use a service
but re-use a business process. Now, enterprises can define their own behaviors
optimized for their businesses through metadata and flows. This business process
composition has become increasingly important for constructing business logic.
The ability of composite applications to share components between them nullifies
the distinction between actual applications. Business users should be able to move
between the activities they need to do without any actual awareness that they are
moving from one domain to another.
The composite application design enables your company to combine multiple
heterogeneous technologies into a single application, bringing key application
capability within reach of your business user. Enterprises creating richer composite
applications by leveraging existing interoperable components increase the
development organization's ability to respond quickly and cost-effectively to
emerging business requirements. While there are many vendors offering various
graphical tools to create composite applications, this book will focus on OpenESB
and NetBeans IDE for designing and building composite applications.
