Enterprise service bus (ESB) technology once dominated integration strategies, but organizations now face mounting challenges with legacy ESB implementations that slow digital transformation efforts.
Modern businesses require faster, more flexible integration approaches that can handle cloud applications, APIs, and real-time data flows without the complexity and maintenance overhead of traditional ESB architectures.
Cloud-native integration platform as a service (iPaaS) solutions like Boomi Enterprise Platform provide organizations with pre-built connectors, AI-powered automation, and scalable integration capabilities that address ESB limitations.
This guide examines what ESB is, its core challenges, and why iPaaS alternatives deliver better outcomes for today’s integration requirements.
ESB technology helps companies connect their different software applications without creating a mess of connections. When companies use point-to-point integration, they connect each application directly to every other application. This means fewer connections to build and maintain. The ESB also makes sure all applications speak the same language by converting data into formats each system can understand.
