New offering sets the stage for faster and easier cloud, mobile and
business process development and integration
RALEIGH, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Red Hat, Inc. (NYSE: RHT), the world's leading provider of open source
solutions, today announced its next-generation service design,
development and integration platform, JBoss Fuse Service Works 6, to
help enterprises unlock information dispersed in different applications,
integrate disparate business processes, and transition to open hybrid
cloud architectures.
Today's enterprise IT environments are highly distributed, yet the
applications, workflows and business processes—many of which are
mission-critical to the function and operation of the business—are
highly dependent on one another. JBoss Fuse Service Works provides the
integration, orchestration, governance and monitoring required to meet
the speed and quality needs of the business. JBoss Fuse Service Works
sets the stage for faster and easier cloud, mobile and business process
development projects by allowing IT to simplify service-enabling of
existing and new applications and data.
JBoss Fuse Service Works 6 represents the next version of Red Hat JBoss
SOA Platform and includes enterprise service bus (ESB) capabilities
based on Apache Camel, an implementation of many of the most commonly
used enterprise integration patterns (EIP). It leads to greater
accuracy, agility and quality, across enterprise applications and
services. Additionally, JBoss Fuse Service Works 6 provides a foundation
for running integration in the cloud, setting the stage for integration
Platform-as-a-Service (iPaaS).
JBoss Fuse Service Works includes:
-
Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) consisting of a modern enterprise
integration pattern-based development model through Apache
Camel, a high-performance messaging broker through Apache
ActiveMQ, and a web services framework through Apache
CXF.
-
Service delivery - Full life cycle support for developing,
deploying and managing service-oriented applications is provided by a
lightweight service delivery framework, based on Service Component
Architecture (SCA), called SwitchYard.
SwitchYard supports distributed and cross-functional teams with code
and model-driven tooling, and enables developers to focus on the
actual business logic by separating the underlying implementation.
-
Service governance - Life cycle management for services, from
design and development through deployment, is based on the Overlord
project, helping to define, expose and enforce rules or policies.
-
Business transaction monitoring - Overlord also provides the
infrastructure to capture service activity information and then
provides necessary metrics and alerts to help meet business and
service level agreements (SLAs) and optimize the integration solutions.
Availability
Red Hat JBoss Fuse Service Works 6 is available
for download now.

"The diverse and interdependent nature of
today's business services ecosystems requires more than simple service
orchestration - integration, governance and monitoring are crucial for
supporting the needs of the business. JBoss Fuse Service Works sets the
stage for faster and easier cloud, mobile application and business
process development and integration by providing a comprehensive
offering that allows IT to simplify service-enabling of existing and new
applications and data."

"We're
excited to see Red Hat taking steps to help organizations be more
strategic in how they approach integration. Having a high level of
visibility and control over the full business service ecosystem - from
applications to business processes - can be a great advantage for modern
enterprises, and we're excited about Red Hat's approach to delivering
this with JBoss Fuse Service Works."
Carl Lehmann, research manager, 451 Research
"A new term
will become more common in our IT vernacular. ‘Business services' are
emerging as reusable and configurable components. They can integrate and
assemble to form new applications that span on-premise infrastructure
and cloud services. But they will require tools such as Red Hat's JBoss
Fuse Service Works to simplify integration complexity and make practical
open hybrid cloud architecture."
