It is designed to connect, mediate, and manage interactions between heterogeneous services, legacy applications, packaged applications, and multiple Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) implementations (such as other OSB instances, Microsoft BizTalk, IBM WebsSphere ESB, SAP-XI, ...and so on) across an enterprise-wide service network. Oracle Service Bus is a core component of the Oracle SOA Suite.
