Hi There is also camel-restlet http://camel.apache.org/restlet
It may be easier to get hold of and use. But CXF may have more configuration options, but is also IMHO harder to get started with using - some of that is us to blame, for not having better documentation and samples. And the fact that IMHO camel-cxf has both WS and RS in the same big giant component, which IMHO is becoming a problem and hurts the lightweightness of Camel and CXF. You may also take a look at some of the articles about Camel. There should be some good ones about REST etc http://camel.apache.org/articles For example this article http://www.ofbizian.com/2012/02/apache-camel-rest-example.html But there is others as well.
