Software AG has been named a “leader” in the April 2011 Forrester Wave: Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), Q2 2011 report. Software AG is ranked the highest in current offering, strategy and market presence, among nine ESB vendors and 11 ESB products. Software AG’s ESB provides the foundation for a SOA, combining application integration capabilities, high-speed messaging, and event-driven technologies to create a complete integration infrastructure solution.
According to Forrester Research, Software AG and the other leaders’ top-ranking position in this report is based on having “the most-comprehensive support for ESB features.” The research firm has cited Software AG as a leader in the past four Forrester Wave evaluations in this category.
According to Forrester, “Software AG delivers an easy-to-use ESB” and has a “… long track record of providing ease of implementation and delivering value to customers.” In fact, Software AG has the largest number of ESB implementations of any vendor in this evaluation. ESBs have evolved quickly over the past several years, according to Forrester. The use of ESBs in enterprises is poised for continued growth. Forrester observed that 58% of organisations responding to their survey are already using an ESB, and another 32% are considering an ESB.
“To be named a leader in an industry that is built on delivering robust, innovative solutions to the marketplace is an honor,” says Dr. Wolfram Jost, CTO and member of the executive board, Software AG.
