Hi Sherwin, Since Camel 3.x multiple CamelContexts are not supported. See migration guide: https://github.com/apache/camel/blob/master/docs/user-manual/modules/ROOT/pages/camel-3-migration-guide.adoc
However it's possible to run multiple Camel applications. It depends on your runtime how to implement it. Some examples 1) Standalone When running Camel as standalone application just start two JVM's. So for example route 1 to 10 is running in JVM proces 1 and route 11 to 20 in JVM proces 2. Both can run on the same server or on different servers. You can even have some kind of failover: https://camel.apache.org/components/latest/eips/loadBalance-eip.html 2) Karaf When you have for example Karaf (https://karaf.apache.org/) containers. You can put some routes in one Karaf container and other routes in another. 3) Assimbly I developed and use Assimbly (which runs in Spring boot) as a runtime for some FTP --> S3 routes. There you can bundle routes per gateway ( https://github.com/assimbly/gateway). 4) Wildfly/EAP In Wildfly you can pack camel routes as war files, so each war file run within the Wildfly application server. You might also want to check: https://tomd.xyz/multiple-camel-contexts/ As a sidenote: when you need more flexible and scalable solution you might try to use message queueing like ActiveMQ (http://activemq.apache.org/) or build a REST API with Camel ( https://camel.apache.org/components/latest/rest-component.html).
