I am hearing alot about Tibco now adays and heared its a good integration tool( but not like webMethods )I wanted to know if someone can put some light on that who has come across with this tool.

Just like webMethods, TIBCO has a suite of products each focused on a different level of integration. Their claim to fame is as the inventors of pub/sub messaging and their core product Rendezvous. As you look at their product suite you’ll see an amazing parallel between it and the wM suite. Here are the very rough parallels at a conceptual level:

Broker -> Rendezvous, Enterprise Message Service
Integration Server -> BusinessWorks
Trading Networks -> Business Connect, Business Partner
Modeler/PRT, Workflow -> Staffware
Portal -> PortalBuilder
Manager -> BusinessFactor

Again, these are very crude comparisons since each of the vendors approach the solution space in different ways, though they each talk about BPM, BAM, SOA, ESB and such.

Taz,

Market wise webMethods and Tibco both are going parallels steady way…but according to the eBizQ ratings still WM product leads the show
in the SOA and integration space.

Just to add on the parallel terms,
Monitor in webMethods –> Hawk in Tibco

Thanks for the update…i belive there are few more parallel terms which you have missed.In all aspects based on the BizQ SOA metrics WM is leading…

Ya webMethods Rock

Dear All,

I am re-open this old topic.

Can anyone let me know which is the largest used integration middle-ware tool? Is it Tibco, webMethods, IBM webSphere, Oracle Fusion, Mule?

Any comments/suggestions are welcome.

Thanks,
Mahesh

Mule

Can someone please answer this question
