20. Copyright 2007 TL Consulting, LLC. All Rights Reserved. 20 ESB Use Case 1. A partnering company sends an order to the ESB. 2. The ESB’s Event Endpoint receives it and decrypts the message 3. The endpoint’s pipe then authenticates the message producer via WS-Security policies 4. Then a filter inspects the content and figures out there is a registered pipeline for this type message and forwards the message. 5. The second pipeline’s first filter translates customer supply codes to out companies supply codes 6. The pipe’s next filter adds metadata to the message 7. The pipe’s last filter sends the message to the order fulfillment endpoint and consequently in the order fulfillment application
