ESB artifacts are custom developed extensions that can be deployed in the ESB. These extensions can contain custom mediators, tasks, configuration factories and serializers. ESB artifacts packed into .jar or .xar format could be hot-deployed in ESB using ESB Artifact Uploader feature.
To deploy an ESB artifact, click Manage > ESB Artifacts > Add. Archives containing ESB artifacts could be uploaded using this user interface. (Figure 1)
