TIBCO Service Grid Overview :

TIBCO ActiveMatrix Service Grid is a comprehensive SOA development platform that lets you transform business logic written in different programming languages into re-usable SOA services, and then assemble those services into powerful composite applications. ActiveMatrix Service Grid is the ideal SOA development platform when you have a diverse set of software assets that you want to reuse. You can easily build composite applications because almost all the work is done in graphical IDE, requiring little or no coding. Organizations who have implemented SOA with ActiveMatrix have achieved 30 to 60 percent greater productivity compared to alternative technologies.
