Enterprise Integration Patterns

Camel supports most of the Enterprise Integration Patterns. If you are new to Camel you might want to try the Getting Started in the User Guide before attempting to implement these patterns.

Excerpt

Image Modified	Message Channel	How does one application communicate with another using messaging?
Image Modified	Message	How can two applications connected by a message channel exchange a piece of information?
Image Modified	Pipes and Filters	How can we perform complex processing on a message while maintaining independence and flexibility?
Image Modified	Message Router	How can you decouple individual processing steps so that messages can be passed to different filters depending on a set of conditions?
Image Modified	Message Translator	How can systems using different data formats communicate with each other using messaging?
Image Modified	Message Endpoint	How does an application connect to a messaging channel to send and receive messages?

Image Modified	Point to Point Channel	How can the caller be sure that exactly one receiver will receive the document or perform the call?
Image Modified	Publish Subscribe Channel	How can the sender broadcast an event to all interested receivers?
Image Modified	Dead Letter Channel	What will the messaging system do with a message it cannot deliver?
Image Modified	Guaranteed Delivery	How can the sender make sure that a message will be delivered, even if the messaging system fails?
Image Modified	Message Bus	What is an architecture that enables separate applications to work together, but in a de-coupled fashion such that applications can be easily added or removed without affecting the others?

Image Modified	Content Based Router	How do we handle a situation where the implementation of a single logical function (e.g., inventory check) is spread across multiple physical systems?
Image Modified	Message Filter	How can a component avoid receiving uninteresting messages?
Image Modified	Recipient List	How do we route a message to a list of dynamically specified recipients?
Image Modified	Splitter	How can we process a message if it contains multiple elements, each of which may have to be processed in a different way?
Image Modified	Resequencer	How can we get a stream of related but out-of-sequence messages back into the correct order?

Image Modified	Content Enricher	How do we communicate with another system if the message originator does not have all the required data items available?
Image Modified	Content Filter	How do you simplify dealing with a large message, when you are interested only in a few data items?
Image Modified	Normalizer	How do you process messages that are semantically equivalent, but arrive in a different format?

	Messaging Mapper	How do you move data between domain objects and the messaging infrastructure while keeping the two independent of each other?
Image Modified	Event Driven Consumer	How can an application automatically consume messages as they become available?
Image Modified	Polling Consumer	How can an application consume a message when the application is ready?
Image Modified	Competing Consumers	How can a messaging client process multiple messages concurrently?
Image Modified	Message Dispatcher	How can multiple consumers on a single channel coordinate their message processing?
Image Modified	Selective Consumer	How can a message consumer select which messages it wishes to receive?
Image Modified	Durable Subscriber	How can a subscriber avoid missing messages while it's not listening for them?
	Idempotent Consumer	How can a message receiver deal with duplicate messages?
Image Modified	Transactional Client	How can a client control its transactions with the messaging system?
Image Modified	Messaging Gateway	How do you encapsulate access to the messaging system from the rest of the application?
Image Modified	Service Activator	How can an application design a service to be invoked both via various messaging technologies and via non-messaging techniques?
