Len DiMaggio
Len DiMaggio stumbled into computer programming at business school and has never looked back. He considers himself very lucky to have always worked with and for fun and interesting people during his over two decades tracking elusive software bugs. One of his earliest work experiences was accompanying his first manager on long walks to collect blunt instruments to be used to “break in” new technical user documents.
Len has worked for some of the better known pioneering technical companies such as DEC, BBN, GTE, Rational, IBM and now JBoss by Red Hat. Len is the software test team lead for the open source JBoss Service Oriented Architecture Platform (SOAP) which is built on Jboss ESB.
This is Len's first book. He is a “Most Valuable Blogger” at Dzone where he is a frequent contributor. Len has also written over 50 articles for Dzone, Red Hat Magazine, Dr. Dobbs' Journal and other publications. Len writes a blog that is (mostly) dedicated to software testing subjects (https://swqetesting.blogspot.com/), is a proud member of the JBoss community (https://community.jboss.org/people/ldimaggio) and, when he is not testing software, is a frequent contributor to Fotopedia.
Kevin Conner
Kevin is the Platform Architect for the SOA platform within JBoss, a division of Red Hat. After graduating from Newcastle University Kevin worked as a kernel programmer with Integrated Micro Products, developing fault tolerant network drivers. IMP were later acquired by Sun Microsystems where he was to discover Java. He has over fifteen years experience of Java, predominately Enterprise technologies, which he has used to develop software for technical, financial and local government clients. Before joining JBoss he was a Senior Engineer with Arjuna Technologies, working on the transaction products.
Magesh Kumar B
Magesh Kumar B. is a Senior Software Engineer at JBoss a division of Red Hat. He has a Masters in Computer Applications from Coimbatore Institute of Technology. His passion is coding in Java and he has architected many enterprise applications prior to Red Hat. His project contributions include JBoss WS and JBoss Portal. His current projects are JBoss ESB and SwitchYard. He hails from Ooty and lives in Bangalore, India with his wife, three kids and his parents. You can reach him at mageshbk@gmail.com. This is his first book.
Tom Cunningham
Tom Cunningham is currently the project lead for JBossESB and has worked for Red Hat since 2007 on JBoss ESB and SwitchYard. Tom is an active committer on the Apache jUDDI and Apache Scout projects. Tom received a B.S. in Computer Science from Georgetown University and a M.S. in Computer Science from Arizona State University and has worked in software development for over 14 years.

In Detail
You may often have wondered if there is a better way to integrate disparate applications than error-prone "glue code". JBoss ESB is just that solution as it can help solve common but difficult problems: writing new code that can be re-used and maintained, and integrating together new and old systems. JBoss ESB takes care of routing and processing service requests, leaving you to concentrate on your system's design and development.
The JBoss ESB Beginner’s Guide gets you up and running quickly with JBoss ESB to build your own service-based applications, with enhanced communication and organization. You will learn how to create new applications or to integrate combinations of new and legacy applications. Detailed examples get you creating your own services, and deploying and administering them with other JBoss Open Source tools.
Through hands-on examples, this book shows you how JBoss ESB enables you to design your system as services that are loosely coupled together by sending and receiving messages. Your services can execute your own custom code, or make use of JBoss ESB’s extensive set of out-of-the-box actions to perform specific tasks. The JBoss ESB Beginner’s Guide shows you the tools you can use to build re-usable and maintainable service-based applications with JBoss ESB, and teaches you by example how to use these tools.
Approach
Part of Packt’s Beginner’s Guide series, each chapter contains practical examples with step-by-step instructions and plenty of screenshots to guide you through the implementation of JBoss ESB.
Who this book is for
This book is intended for Java programmers although you don’t need previous experience with middleware such as application servers or ESBs.
