Petals ESB is based on JBI (JSR 208) industry specification. It was the first ESB certified by Sun Microsystems under the JSR 208 TCK.[1] Based on standards, it also supports SOA standards such as BPMN and Enterprise Integration Patterns capabilities.
Fractal deployment framework,[2] JBI pluggable components, and open source licensing make it modular and customizable.
The originality of Petals is to implement a highly distributed topology.[3] The first stable version of Petals ESB, called PEtALS, was released on September 21, 2006.[4]
