Headers vs. Properties in ESBs
Headers are commonly used for service-level information (e.g. HTTP or JMS headers copied from incoming messages) and properties, for message-level information (e.g. data saved from previous messages in the itinerary) that could be instead added to messages.
While Progress Sonic ESB stores them together in XQ messages, both FUSE ESB and JBossESB store headers and properties apart.
