1. A system for routing electronic messages comprising one or more computer servers with computer-readable code for carrying out the following instructions:
receiving an electronic request message by an ESB from a service consumer; analyzing said electronic request message to determine whether it is proprietary or canonical, where a canonical message includes header information in a predetermined canonical format and structure and a proprietary message either lacks any header information or includes header information in a format or structure different from the predetermined canonical format and structure of a canonical message; if said request message is proprietary, adding header information in said predetermined canonical format and structure to said request message; generating a request message list of instructions, said request message list of instructions including message-specific service details including:
a name of a service requested;a version of the service requested;an operation of the service requested; anda route key defining a current and next destination of the message;said message-specific service details being acquired from a database based on the request message;
analyzing said list of instructions to determine whether translation is required; if translation is required, applying translation logic to the request message; analyzing said list of instructions to determine whether data transformation is required; if data transformation is required, applying data transformation logic to the request message; routing said request message to a service provider based on the request message list of instructions route key; receiving an electronic response message by the ESB from the service provider, said response message including a response message list of instructions; analyzing said response message list of instructions to determine whether translation is required; if translation is required, applying translation logic to the response message; analyzing said list of instructions to determine whether data transformation is required; if data transformation is required, applying data transformation logic to the response message; delivering said response message to said service consumer.
