UltraESB

UltraESB is a lightweight enterprise service bus (ESB) capable of supporting many transports and message formats natively. It allows messages to be mediated via Java or JSR 223 scripting languages ^[1] over the JDK support, and is the first ESB to claim support for Zero-Copy proxying^[2] of messages.

The initial version was published first in January 2010 and the code was subsequently open sourced under the OSI approved Affero General Public License AGPL in August 2010.^[3]
