ESB Evaluation Framework

I accidentally came across the "Enterprise Service Bus Evaluation Framework" by Patricia Seybold Group. The author of this article Brenda M. Michelson identified the very improtant criteria in evaluating the Enterprise Service Bus.

- Integration Scenarios
- Design, Development and Deployment
- Management and monitoring
- Architecture
- Product Viability
- Company Viability

I suggest you to consider these in evaluating your next ESB product for your organization.
