&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT face=Verdana&gt;"JBI is entirely focused on an API for integration vendors. Application developers are unlikely to ever use it".&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT face=Verdana&gt;You look at something like BizTalk Server, or even better, at Indigo, and its quite the opposite.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT face=Verdana&gt;Customers want software to be architected to solve their challenges. Not software specs that are focussed on keeping the JBI-compliant integration vendor ecosystem on life support.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=438711" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://blogs.msdn.com/jdevados/archive/tags/Architecture+/default.aspx">Architecture </category></item></channel></rss>
