Apache Camel is an

application programming interface (or declarative Java domain-specific language) to configure routing and mediation rules.[clarification needed
]

The domain-specific language means that Apache Camel can support type-safe smart completion of routing rules in an integrated development environment using regular Java code without large amounts of XML configuration files, though XML configuration inside Spring Framework is also supported.

Camel is often used with Apache ServiceMix, Apache ActiveMQ and Apache CXF in service-oriented architecture projects.

Tooling

  • Several Apache Maven-plugins are provided for validation and deployment.
  • Graphical, Eclipse-based tooling is freely available from Red Hat. It provides graphical editing and debugging and advanced validation.
  • Eclipse based tooling from Talend.
