Enterprise Management Bus ( EMB)

Enterprise Management Bus Phew!! Still struggling to come into terms with enterprise Service Bus now we have been given this new term. But alas it is more simpler to understand and appreciate. But implementation is a separate story. So for now lets try to see if we understand this..Its all about the ability to have a unified view to systems, applications and network information. Well is it about business dashboards ( the roots are there) but it is about context aware dashboards that takes away human intervention looking at consoles. It is about autonomic computing. Bottom line with all the focus on enterprise integration, SOA the potential for all encompassing system management tool is out there which provides a multidimensional view cutting across applications, technologies. Wana design EMB, design ideas are requested!!! Collaboration is Welcome :)
