Integration migrates to the cloud | Software as Services. Integration vendor Cast Iron, which for years has offered its product packaged as a hardware appliance, this week unveiled a cloud-native integration service. The introduction of Cast Iron Cloud is the culmination of a transition begun earlier this year when Cast Iron began offering cloud hosting of its upgraded appliance product. Customers can now choose between an on-premise appliance, a dedicated cloud-hosted appliance or the multi-tenant cloud service. Organizations that still have a lot of their own server infrastructure will continue to opt for the on-premise appliance, VP of product marketing Chandar Pattabhiram told me in a briefing last week.
The cloud service has been created to serve what Cast Iron sees as a growing market of 'SaaS-centric' organizations — mostly smaller businesses — that use several different cloud services and have little or no servers in-house. "The aim is to take integration off the table for them," said Pattabhiram. Does My Bus Look Big in This? Middleware briefing.

The enterprise service bus market has been on a roll, as detailed in two new analyst reports that are detailed in SearchWebServices. I talk a lot in this blog about the intangibility of the SOA concept, that there's no such thing as "SOA in a Box. " Well, ESBs are the closest thing we have to a tangible SOA product. For now, ESBs are hot, hot, hot. But how much longer will they flourish as standalone products? However, ESBs are increasingly being regarded as pieces of the SOA puzzle -- not a solution in and of themselves. We're likely to start seeing ESBs being absorbed into larger solutions. For now, however, ESBs are hot, hot, hot. What's the appeal with ESBs?
