Petals ESB is an open-source ESB developed by Linagora. It is a tool for implementing a service-oriented architecture (SOA). It is standard, modular, and physically distributed, to adapt to large-scale infrastructures.

Petals ESB is based on JBI (JSR 208) industry specification. It was the first ESB certified by Sun Microsystems under the JSR 208 TCK.[1] Based on standards, it also supports SOA standards such as BPMN and Enterprise Integration Patterns capabilities.

Fractal deployment framework,[2] JBI pluggable components, and open source licensing make it modular and customizable.

The originality of Petals is to implement a highly distributed topology.[3] The first stable version of Petals ESB, called PEtALS, was released on September 21, 2006.[4]
