To support these data-intensive applications, the Orlando Magic needed a storage area network (SAN) with I/O performance fast enough to play and stream both standard and high-definition (HD) video. Read this case study to see their solution. 

Gregor Hohpe and Bobby Woolf documented their combined experience in the integration space and created the book "Enterprise Integration Patterns" (EIP), which has since been adopted as the standard for describing messaging solutions. Check out this deck of flashcards to find definitions of integration design patterns based on EIP.
