Pros
- Up to 900 connectors included in the license with no extra cost
- Graphical UI to develop the Web Services
- You can begin with the community version to evaluate or start implementing a very uncomplicated ESB
- The Talend ESB Admin Control is very powerful with dashboards and reports to keep your IF working smoothly
Cons
- You have to log in to each module separately
- 900 connectors is a lot, but if you have a custom app to interface, you have to develop your connector
Return on Investment
- Considerably cheaper than oracle service bus
- As I said before, you can run a POC using the community version of Talend Studio.
