Making FME Your ESB

Integrating different systems using a point-to-point approach quickly becomes costly and difficult to maintain. Instead, an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) enables platforms to be integrated in a scalable, resilient way. But many ESB platforms and frameworks are expensive and require significant up-front implementation effort. And typically they cannot handle spatial information very well. So why not use FME as your ESB? It has all the capabilities of a traditional ESB such as data transformation, publish/subscribe mechanisms, and real-time messaging. In this presentation we will describe how FME can be used as an ESB, using an example of a local government integrating their 311 service requests with work order systems and asset management repositories. We'll also touch on key considerations and design patterns for making FME your ESB platform.
