          Hi,

          Does JBoss ESB could run on websphere application server?

          The current version of JBossESB 4.x cannot run on WebSphere application server. The next version of JBossESB (version 5) will be able to run in other containers though.

          Would using the jbossesb-server, which is a slimmed down jboss application server, be an option for you?
          This could work well for hosting your ESB and still connect to your applications running on WebSphere and other applications server and/or backend systems. Using a separate server makes a clear separation between the ESBs task (transformation, routing, security, etc) and your business logic. You should be able to replace your ESB without that effecting you business applications.

            beve, thanks for you response! it's helpful!
            But the Jboss ESB has three editions, for JbossAS, for tomcat, and stand alone. So it could run in tomcat, right? I don't know how to deploy esb project to tomcat, though.
            Then why it could not run in websphere? websphere is a much more larger container than tomcat.
            Am I thinking right?

              Hi,

              I noticed that this is stated in the getting started guide. There is also a notice that it does not yet support ESB archive deployments (.esb).
              Let me look into this as I've never tried to deploy to tomcat and I'm not sure it really is supported.

                  Hi,

                  I've verified this and Tomcat is no longer a supported deployment target. It was a one stage but not anymore. I've removed the statement about Tomcat from the GettingStartedGuide. Sorry that this misled you.

                    hi, Daniel, yes, we can't deploy the *.esb project to tomcat directly, but Jboss esb still could be loaded as service in tomcat, I just finished the helloworld example in tomcat with jboss esb, and I need do more example to verify if we can integration other services, like jbpm, rules, spring into the tomcat. I will do more examples come with the esb distribution, and I will feed the result back.
                    thanks for you response.

                      That sounds interesting! :)
                      Could you explain how you are loading this as a service in Tomcat?

                      Thanks,
