Time to balance WS-* and REST

REST is particularly suitable for very large networks with huge numbers of clients and servers and where it is convenient to model all operations as reads and writes directed to individual URIs. As for WS-*, its sweet spot lies in systems bigger than those that use distributed objects, and whose networks are further flung, slower, less reliable, and possibly divided between different administrative domains.


ActiveBPEL Enterprise

ActiveBPEL™ Enterprise is the premier solution for deploying, running and managing BPEL-based applications. Designed from the ground up with a modular, extensible architecture, ActiveBPEL Enterprise servers integrate as easily into ISV solution stacks as they do into enterprise SOA frameworks.

Unlike many other SOA runtime servers, which claim to support BPEL but, in fact, only offer clunky translation adapters, ActiveBPEL Enterprise uses BPEL as its native process language. The result is a suite of BPEL servers that consistently deliver best-in-class performance, scale and reliability. What's more, ActiveBPEL Enterprise servers support all leading enterprise deployment platforms, offering the greatest range of flexibility and growth, including:

  • Small footprint applications
    ActiveBPEL Enterprise for Apache Tomcat is the ideal solution for laptop, desktop and workgroup server deployments. Fast, compact and economical, these servers offer all of the capabilities needed to run production-class BPEL applications.

  • Scalable, reliable J2EE™ applications
    ActiveBPEL Enterprise servers for JBoss, WebSphere and WebLogic bring the power of BPEL to market-leading J2EE infrastructures. ActiveBPEL Enterprise servers are meticulously tuned to each J2EE host application server to deliver the most scalable, reliable BPEL servers available for the Java market.

  • Microsoft .NET applications
    ActiveBPEL Enterprise for .NET is the only enterprise-class BPEL server that natively supports Microsoft's .NET Framework. The ideal solution for .NET architects and developers.
