Hi Bruce,
Thanks for your answer, but still I do not get it fully. Many of the
things listed in your blog is already in ServiceMix. It would be nice to
see a list of what is in FUSE and is not in ServiceMix. For instance,
Jetty is used in ServiceMix as well, or am I wrong? jUDDI is on the
other hand not in ServiceMix.

Hi,
I would like to get a clear picture of the difference between Fuse and
ServiceMix is. This question was raised in a previous mail but the
answer was not very clear to me.
Tomas,
LogicBlaze FUSE is built on top of Apache ServiceMix to deliver a
complete SOA runtime. As a point of comparison, consider the J2EE
runtime contained in an application server, but think much, much
lighter and more agile than requiring a full J2EE stack everywhere.
FUSE is designed to provide a complete runtime for developing event
driven applications in a service oriented manner.
Consider what RedHat has done with Linux. Anyone can build their own
Linux distribution (http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/) but few people
care to do this because of the effort involved in such topics as
maintenance, support, testing, validation, etc. RedHat has provided
the world with an easily installable Linux with much value added and
it offers enterprise level services and support. FUSE is very similar
to RedHat Linux insomuch as adding value to quality open source
software (Apache ActiveMQ, Apache Derby, Apache ServiceMix, Apache
Ode, Apache jUDDI, Jetty, etc.) and providing services, support and
added value.
Here is some info about FUSE that I blogged about when it was first
launched, this might help in terms of information:

In addition to that, there's always the LogicBlaze website:
http://www.logicblaze.com/
that now includes the Developer Zone which is focused on delivering
FAQs, articles guides and more info about FUSE and it's components.
Please let me know if you have any further questions.
