Excerpt

Camel

the

routing and mediation

rules which are added to a CamelContext to implement the various Enterprise Integration Patterns.

At a high level Camel consists of a CamelContext which contains a collection of Component instances. A Component is essentially a factory of Endpoint instances.

You can explicitly configure Component instances in Java code or an IoC container like Spring or Guice, or they can be auto-discovered using URIs.

A Component is essentially a factory of Endpoint instances. An individual

An Endpoint acts rather like a URI or URL in a web application or a Destination in a JMS system; you can communicate with an endpoint; either sending messages to it or consuming messages from it. You can then create a Producer or Consumer

of

on an Endpoint to exchange messages with it.

The

Java Domain Specific Language (DSL) or Xml Configuration then adds Routes to a CamelContext which implement the various Enterprise Integration Patterns.

...

DSL makes heavy use of pluggable Languages to create an Expression or Predicate to make a truly powerful DSL which is extensible to the most suitable language depending on your needs. The following languages are supported
