Bobby Woolf

Bobby Woolf is one of developerWorks' most popular bloggers, pushed into the job by his good friend Bill Higgins, another popular developerWorks blogger. Here, Woolf talks about his journey into blogging, touching on how he focuses his efforts there, then moves into a discussion of one of his favorite topics of late: event-driven architecture (EDA). He explains what EDA is, talks about the utilization of EDA and service-oriented architecture (SOA), and introduces the Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) that enables the use of an EDA and SOA together.
