Message Switching Systems (MSS) are known for quite a long time but yet not resolved the business challenges. Though they provided a good open system foundation to build on. Companies are struggling to meet time-to-market expectations with the fast growing number of applications (financial, medical, manufactures, etc.) trying to keep expenses within the budget (and some failed).
    MSS are presented as front-end intermediary delivery mechanisms (Network Service Providers) between many applications at different locations and multiple specialized industrial networks. Proposed four layers of switching allow flexible routing of messages in parallel message flows (any-to-any location-application combinations), powerful prioritization and traffic distribution, controlled scalability, performance and pro-active monitoring.
    Introduced many questions arising in real life production systems with some but might not be the best answers.
