What is the relation of Camel to ServiceMix-EIP? Is one somehow the historical ancestor of the other? Or are they intended to be equivalent functionality, but in different settings?
ServiceMix EIP was the ancestor; they both do similar things. The main difference with ServiceMix EIP is its inttegrated into the existing ServiceMix XBean XML stuff; whereas Camel has more EIP coverage and can be used outside of JBI (e.g. just with pure JMS or MINA)... http://activemq.apache.org/camel/enterprise-integration-patterns.html Also Camel supports Java or XML configuration. We should probably integrate Camel into ServiceMix as the preferred EIP solution and consider deprecating (or at least merging) the ServiceMix EIP functionality. -- James ------- http://macstrac.blogspot.com/
