Developing integration solutions by using patterns

The supplied patterns provide reusable solutions that encapsulate a tested approach to solving a common architecture, design, or deployment task in a particular context. Much of the work of design and development has been done for you when you use a pattern.

You can use these patterns unchanged, or modify them to meet your own requirements. You must create additional resources to complement the pattern and complete the solution.
