Ambiguous Use of The Term ESB in Commerce
There is no commonly accepted definition of the term ESB. Most modern providers of Message-oriented middleware have adopted the ESB concept as de facto standard for SOA.

Unfortunately confusion is occasionally caused by software manufacturers who relabel their existing middleware and communication solutions as ESB without adopting the crucial spirit of a bus concept.

“Here the term ‘language-game’ is meant to bring into prominence the fact that the speaking of language is part of an activity, of a form of life.”

“Here, the churches seemed to shrink away into eroding corners. They seem to have ceased to be essential parts of American life. They no longer give life. It is the huge buildings of commerce and trade which now align the people to attention. These in their massive manner of steel and stone say, Come unto me all ye who labour, and we will give you work.”
—Sean O’Casey (1884–1964)
