Featured Reviews

Awa Sri - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers valuable features of API management and protocol definition
The initial setup process of Oracle Service Bus is quite easy. The installation of the product can be completed in one or two hours, but the total deployment time varies from case to case. I believe the entire deployment of Oracle Service Bus can be finished within a day. One engineer is enough to deploy the solution. The solution can be easily maintained.

Functional administrative controls, highly scalable, and reliable
ESB will connect in real-time data between the two systems. For example, for one of our customers, we implemented Salesforce and with an on-premises system but the account master data and project master data did not work together. As soon as it requests the information, I have to fix the data from the SAP on-premise with this solution. This is the use case for service and sales implementations. The solution has enabled us to be able to fix our data by combining the cloud and on-premises systems which has helped a lot.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature of this solution is that you can connect with different applications."
"The solution integrates external systems by providing a lot of APIs for external transactions, such as open purchase orders and sales orders."
"The ability to master the process in one location."
"It has improved the efficiency of development."

More Oracle Service Bus pros
"I have found the best feature are the administrative controls."
 

Cons

"While I have not used the latest versions, resource efficiency could be optimized, considering past experiences"

"The weak point of OSB is the single point of failure."

"It would be ideal if they could optimize it a bit."
