Apache Camel

Hello Its Rohan Kadam😊,

What is Apache Camel🦒?

Apache Camel ™ is a versatile open-source integration framework based on known Enterprise Integration Patterns.

Camel empowers you to define routing and mediation rules in a variety of domain-specific languages (DSL, such as Java, XML, Groovy, Kotlin, and YAML). This means you get smart completion of routing rules in your IDE, whether in a Java or XML editor.

Apache Camel uses URIs to work directly with any kind of transport or messaging models such as HTTP, ActiveMQ, JMS, JBI, SCA, MINA or CXF, as well as pluggable Components and Data Format options. Apache Camel is a small library with minimal dependencies for easy embedding in any Java application. Apache Camel lets you work with the same API regardless of which kind of transport is used — so learn the API once and you can interact with all the Components provided out-of-box.

Step 1: Create Spring Boot Project Using spring initializer.

Spring Initializr

Step 2: Add the following dependencies to pom.xml

Step 3: Creating a basic first route.

Apache Camel Routes:-

A Camel route is where the integration flow is defined. For example to integrate two systems then a Camel route can be coded to specify how these systems are integrated.

An example could be to take files from an FTP server and send them to an ActiveMQ messaging system.

This can be coded in a route using Java with the Java DSL

Step 4: On Successfully Creation on Route is registered.

Conclusion:-

In the article, we tried to understand what is apache camel is and how to implement a basic route using spring boot. It's been used by developers to develop high speed and flexible applications
