Hi Welcome to the Camel community.
If you are new to Camel then I suggest to read this article which really explains well what Apache Camel is in a 5 minute read http://java.dzone.com/articles/open-source-integration-apache Apache Camel is a framework (library if you will) that is not dependent on a special server etc, so you can run Camel anywhere you want - it just requires a JVM as its Jav based :) All the software from Apache is 100% free and do not require any license etc. If you are looking for a ESB product then Apache ServiceMix is built with a number of Apache projects, which includes Camel, CXF, ActiveMQ and Karaf as its container. Though I suggest to start with Camel and add CXF (camel-cxf) for web service, then you can easily run that in Tomcat and also in the cloud etc. How to run Camel in Web application http://camel.apache.org/tutorial-on-using-camel-in-a-web-application.html As well some of the examples shows that as well http://camel.apache.org/examples And down the road if you are looking for commercial support and the likes with Apache Camel, then take a look at: http://camel.apache.org/commercial-camel-offerings.html On Wed, Oct 16, 2013 at 12:40 PM, biba <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > I intend to start using Apache Camel for the development of a web > application that will process data delivered by different web services. > These web services are serving data in different formats CSV, SOAP, XML.
