This component implements some Enterprise Integration Patterns, described at [http://www.enterpriseintegrationpatterns.com|http://www.enterpriseintegrationpatterns.com/].

According the pattern invoked, the EIP component chains some 'sub-service' invocations and can response by a response to the initial caller.

It can split, aggregate, or routing messages, depending of the pattern in used.

The component is based on asynchronous invocations, so the order of the 'sub-service' invocations and the process of their response is not determinate.

Petals ESB proposes a set of component to able a SOA integrator to compose its services orchestration.

Different kind of approach is possible, and often a combination amongst the different orchestration 'able' components, BPEL, POJO and EIP, permit to build suitable solutions.
