Welcome to Apache Camel
===============================================================================
-Apache Camel is a powerful rule based routing and mediation engine which
-provides a POJO based implementation of the Enterprise Integration Patterns
-using an extremely powerful fluent API (or declarative Java Domain Specific
-Language) to configure routing and mediation rules. The Domain Specific
-Language means that Apache Camel can support type-safe smart completion of
-routing rules in your IDE using regular Java code without huge amounts of
-XML configuration files; though Xml Configuration inside Spring is also
-supported.
-
-Apache Camel uses generics, annotations and URIs so that it can easily work
-directly with any kind of Transport or messaging model such as HTTP, JMS, JBI,
-SCA, MINA or CXF Bus API without mandating a normalized message API which can
-often lead to leaky abstractions. Apache Camel is also a small library which
-has minimal dependencies for easy embedding in any Java application.
+Apache Camel is a powerful Spring based Integration Framework.
+
+Camel implements the Enterprise Integration Patterns allowing you to configure
+routing and mediation rules in either a Java based Domain Specific Language
+(or Fluent API) or via Spring based Xml Configuration files. Either approaches
+mean you get smart completion of routing rules in your IDE whether in your
+Java or XML editor.
+
+Apache Camel uses URIs so that it can easily work directly with any kind of
+Transport or messaging model such as HTTP, ActiveMQ, JMS, JBI, SCA, MINA
+or CXF Bus API together with working with pluggable Data Format options.
+Apache Camel is a small library which has minimal dependencies for easy
+embedding in any Java application.
+
+Apache Camel can be used as a routing and mediation engine for the
+following projects:
+
+ * Apache ActiveMQ which is the most popular and powerful open
+ source message broker
+ * Apache CXF which is a smart web services suite (JAX-WS)
+ * Apache MINA a networking framework
+ * Apache ServiceMix which is the most popular and powerful distributed
+ open source ESB and JBI container
