Sonic is the author of Sonic ESB which is an enterprise service bus that enables companies to integrate applications across the enterprise using a standards-based, server-oriented architecture (SOA). Highly distributed, yet centrally manageable, the ESB overcomes limitations of monolithic integration brokers and application servers to create an event-driven enterprise SOA which can adapt to ever-changing business requirements.

Sonic Software's integration products are built on the world's first enterprise service bus, offering a standards-based distributed infrastructure that reliably and cost-effectively connects applications and orchestrates business processes across the extended enterprise.

"With Sonic we expect to expand our integration reach, reduce our integration costs, and significantly enhance our solutions' agility in the ever changing Supply Chain marketplace," stated Carl Brewer, President of Integrated Warehousing Solutions.

"The Sonic ESB will allow us to easily integrate the IRMS Warehouse Management System with Certified interfaces to over 200 ERP, SCM, and CRM applications including SAP, PeopleSoft / JD Edwards, Oracle, and SSA Global / BaaN, just to name a few. The scope of this product is limitless and provides us with the flexibility to integrate with almost any other enterprise system on the market, very easily, and in a cost-effective way."
