h1. Welcome to LINAGORA's research

*EBM Websourcing, editor of the open source distributed bus, Petals ESB, has been acquired by LINAGORA in June 2012.*
\\
*While the name changes, all the know-how and IP of EBM (including the* *{_}Petals Link{_}* *trademark) remain, as our team is integrated in LINAGORA's Research department.*

We will continue providing innovations in the fields of SOA, large-scale infrastructures, business process management and event-driven architecture in the years to come.
\\
We hope you will find, among results, ones which will help you in your projects.

From the outset [Petals Link (EBM Websourcing)|http://www.petalslink.com] has endeavoured to be an innovative open source vendor. It is for this reason that Petals Link invests heavily in research so that it is able to offer the best possible technology for SOA and Cloud.

We continually seek to improve flexibility, agility and interoperability of our solutions and our on-going research is conducted in the following areas:

* Open source infrastructure for SOA in the cloud: interoperability and scalability across inter-organizational networks.
* Business process modelling: BPM, model transformation, orchestration and choreography.
* Collaborative engineering: ontology and semantic services, intelligent processing and collaborative development.

Our R&D initiatives with academic research laboratories and business partners ensure we have the best possible vision of market trends and nascent technologies.

Petals Link is involved in several leading research projects, supported by French governement and European Union agencies as well as key research projects with private and public partners. Petals Link is also active in several international open-source bodies, such as OW2 (formerly ObjectWeb) where our technologies (Petals [ESB|http://www.petalslink.com/en/products/petals-esb], [Master|http://www.petalslink.com/en/products/petals-master]) are maintained and source code publicly available.
