WESB 6.2 was released on Friday and anyone Googleing “WebSphere ESB 6.2″ this weekend appears to get a tweet from me and a rather more in depth discussion from my colleague David Currie.
As David points out, the combination of the policy driven mediations and the service gateway scenario support is a huge leap forward, and enables a whole host of new metadata driven scenarios. To me that’s the most exciting thing about this release. Why? Because it opens up the possibility of fewer mediation flow components, and less time in the WID tooling. There’s some good WID tooling to generate service gateway mediation flow components, but I wonder how many people will actually create service gateway mediation flow components, and how many will simply reuse an existing one with different metadata… only time and customers will tell.
