Mergence HL7 Integration Engine 1.1

Mergence is a high performance, open source HL7integration engine and application platform. It was developed to fill the need for an open source, fully transactional healthcare integration system capable of handling millions of messages per day, and thousands of concurrent LLP connections. Mergence is based on Apache ServiceMix, a lightweight enterprise service bus which conforms to the JBI standard, and HAPI, an excellent opensource HL7v2 API. We plan to support HL7v3 in the next release.
Mergence is still in heavy development, and documentation is still lacking, but the current release is already production-ready if you dont mind working with some XML. We have a well-tested and solid core in place, which is fully usable. Development of an AJAX administration console is underway and is the main focus of the 2.0 release.
We hope to have more complete documentation available in the next week.
