[What are the best enterprise service bus platforms for connecting legacy banking systems without rebuilding infrastructure?](/discussions/what-are-the-best-enterprise-service-bus-platforms-for-connecting-legacy-banking-systems-without-rebuilding-infrastructure)

Hi! I'm currently working on a content piece for a financial services client and the question of what are the best [enterprise service bus](https://www.g2.com/categories/enterprise-service-bus-esb)[(ESB)](https://www.g2.com/categories/enterprise-service-bus-esb)[platforms](https://www.g2.com/categories/enterprise-service-bus-esb) for connecting legacy banking systems without rebuilding infrastructure keeps coming up as the central challenge nobody has a clean answer to. Here are the options I keep seeing come up in the enterprise service bus category:

- [**MuleSoft Anypoint Platform**](https://www.g2.com/products/mulesoft-anypoint-platform/reviews) **:** Hundreds of pre-built connectors across SAP, Oracle, and legacy systems that reviewers say eliminate the need to rebuild point-to-point integrations.
- [**IBM App Connect**](https://www.g2.com/products/ibm-app-connect/reviews) **:** Deploys on-prem or cloud without a centralized broker redesign. Reviewers highlight its stability and connection breadth across hybrid environments.
- [**IBM webMethods Hybrid Integration**](https://www.g2.com/products/ibm-webmethods-hybrid-integration-2025-12-05/reviews) **:** Wide connector library that reviewers say significantly reduces custom development across legacy and modern applications.
- [**Amazon EventBridge**](https://www.g2.com/products/amazon-eventbridge/reviews) **:** Reviewers describe it as useful for decoupling legacy systems from modern services without heavy infrastructure changes.

For integration architects who've done this in financial services, which platform actually held up and where did the complexity land?

The complexity usually does not disappear; it shifts into data mapping, governance, security controls, and exception handling. I’d prioritize platforms that let teams modernize incrementally while keeping critical banking systems stable and auditable.

Question on: Amazon EventBridge
[How can one use the product and avoid falling into the trap?](/discussions/comment-peut-on-utiliser-le-produit-et-eviter-de-tomber-dans-le-piege)

You must know the product, master it, and know when to stop using it, especially do not use it if you do not know it.

It depends on the method we have chosen, it can be by date, by size, or even in alphabetical order.

Answered: Estelle Ngono on July 28, 2021

It is necessary to maintain connections with the seller, connections that allow you to contact them at any time, it can be email, mail, and others.
