The recent launch of the Synapse project to create an open source web mediation framework for web services will highlight the growing importance of open source middleware, industry experts have predicted.
According to Gartner, the Synapse project unveiled by Sri Lankan start-up WS02 offers further evidence that open source technology will have a "massive impact" on application integration.
WSO2 and its partners, including Blue Titan Software, Infravio, Iona Technologies and Sonic Software, set out their proposal for Synapse to the Apache Software Foundation.
