Can someone please tell me what Microsoft AppFabric 1.1 for Windows Server - is doing for SharePoint

and what about the Service Bus?

Reason for asking...got a WF issue...and I was advised to update the service bus...but that wouldn't update because the AppFabric was installed....

Distributed caching
Service and workflow management

An enterprise service bus (ESB) is a software architecture model used for designing and implementing communication between mutually interacting software applications in a service-oriented architecture (SOA).
