Unified and Extensible B2B Messaging Framework
----------------------------------------------

Hermes unifies different transport protocols into a single B2B
messaging model. With this unified model, you can easily develop an
messaging framework. With this framework, you can easily develop an
enterprise application to exchange electronic documents with trading
partners via different transport protocols. Designed to be extensible,
Hermes provides the Simple Plug-in Architecture (SPA) for developers
to implement new messaging protocols as plug-ins conforming to the
unified B2B messaging model. Most importantly, Hermes is open-source;
you can freely extend Hermes and integrate it with other systems to
meet your own business needs.

World-Wide Adoption
-------------------

Hermes has been adopted by many commercial and government
organizations to implement mission-critical systems all over the
world. For example, Hermes has been adopted by the Hong Kong
organizations all over the world to build mission-critical B2B
systems. For example, Hermes has been adopted by the Hong Kong
Government to implement the Government Electronic Trading Services
(GETS) gateway. Everyday, the GETS gateway supports the Government to
exchange tens of thousands of trade documents (e.g., trade
(GETS) gateway. Every year, the GETS gateway supports the Government to
exchange tens of millions of trade documents (e.g., trade
declaration) with companies who import and export goods through Hong
Kong.
