Hi, Joshua.
Thank you for your interests in Tuscany. Let me try to dump some information
to you :-).
Tuscany provides open-source software for distribution at no charge to the
public, that simplifies the development, deployment and management of
distributed applications built as compositions of service components, where
the components may be written using any of a wide range of programming
languages and where the components can be connected using any of a wide
range of communication technologies. This software will implement relevant
open standards including, but not limited to, the SCA and SDO standards
defined by the OASIS OpenCSA member section.
There are a few articles/slides:

You can find more information at: http://incubator.apache.org/tuscany/.
Tuscany is not an ESB offering. My understanding is that it's closer to the
business application developers by providing a service assembly model and
programming model. The ESB will provide the flexible IT infrastructure that
composite applications can be deployed.
For AS400, what protocols do you have in mind to provide the connectivity?
They are captured as bindings in Tuscany/SCA. There is a bunch of bindings
available in Tuscany
(http://incubator.apache.org/tuscany/sca-java-user-guide.html#SCAJavaUserGuide-AvailableExtensions).
Tuscany runtime is extensible to plug in new bindings.
Thanks,
Raymond

Dear all,
Can anyone explain to me what tuscany is? Can we call tuscany as an
ESB to legacy apps? Does tuscany provide an interface to connect to
AS400?
Thanks in advance,
