What is BEA AquaLogic Service Bus?

BEA AquaLogic Service Bus is a configuration-based, policy-driven Enterprise Service Bus (ESB). It is targeted for highly scalable and reliable service-oriented integration, managing services, and providing traditional message brokering across heterogeneous IT environments. It combines intelligent message brokering with routing and transformation of messages, along with service monitoring and administration in a unified software product. AquaLogic Service Bus Console enables you to control the service and policy configurations, and monitor system and operations tasks. AquaLogic Service Bus relies on WebLogic Server run-time facilities. For more information, see BEA AquaLogic Service Bus Concepts and Architecture.
