ChainBuilder® ESB is application integration middleware for use in Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) environments.
ChainBuilder ESB creates only Java Business Integration (JBI) compliant Enterprise Service Bus components. ChainBuilder ESB is standard-based, integration middleware which translates the complexities of the JBI specification beneath graphical user interfaces, allowing developers to visually create and assemble ESB components compliant to the open standard without becoming an expert in the specification.

Graphical Interfaces Simplify JBI
The core of the ChainBuilder ESB development environment includes several Eclipse-based plug-ins. These IDE graphical interfaces are used to create and customize ESB components through wizards and drag and drop functionality. Drag the component onto the ChainBuilder ESB canvas and an easy-to-use wizard guides the developer through selecting values for each property of the component. The ChainBuilder ESB Component Flow Editor hides the complexities of Java Business Integration, allowing developers to code to the JBI standard without becoming an expert in the mundane details of the specification.
