Hi Sounds like you are talking about reliable messaging / clustering. This is what Apache ActiveMQ provides much better.
For example if you take a look at Apache ServiceMix, which is an ESB, then ActiveMQ is the "reliable messaging" backbone of this ESB. And Camel is the integration "glue" that makes it easy to integrate with different APIs and transports, and use a standard set of Enterprise Integration Patterns (EIPs) to define your integration flows (aka routes in Camel). So if you combine Camel + ActiveMQ such as ServiceMix does, then you can support this. So if you have a cluster of SMX then you can have nodes crash and AMQ ensures reliable messaging and failover / HA. Though setting up AMQ to do that is non-trivial. With SMX that setup is a manual process, and also static at first. Though you can have AMQ rebalance when new nodes is being added etc. Setting up AMQ is manageable when you have a lower number of nodes. ------------------ A side note To help make this much easier when you have more and more nodes, and if these nodes come and go, or having nodes running in the cloud, etc. then there is some 3rd party projects that help makes this much easier. One of them is Fuse Fabric http://fuse.fusesource.org/fabric/ Which is part of JBoss Fuse product. http://www.jboss.org/jbossfuse In the new release JBoss Fuse 6.1, you can setup broker topologies much easier, which can be visualized in a web console etc. Some sneak peeks what is coming can be read from James blog http://macstrac.blogspot.co.uk/2013/10/a-sneak-peek-at-whats-coming-in-jboss.html ------------------ On Sat, Oct 19, 2013 at 4:38 PM, Pedro Martins <[email protected]> wrote: > I have recently started with Apache Camel so apologies if this questions is > silly. > > I have 2 processes A and B, and each process has an endpoint E1 and E2 > respectively.
