Claus Ibsen will Share how Apache Camel Software Enables Developers to go from Industry-Standard Enterprise Application Patterns to Production with Ease

BEDFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- FuseSource Corp., experts in open source integration and messaging, today invited software developers and architects with an interest in Apache Camel software to attend a complimentary webinar on Aug. 23, 2011. Presented by Claus Ibsen, the webinar will provide attendees with insights into how Apache Camel enables users to address complex integration challenges and go from design to production using a standard notation for integration patterns.

“The Apache Software Foundation’s Apache Camel software is the integration framework of choice for developers and architects who want to work with unprecedented speed and effectiveness,” said Ibsen, principal software engineer at FuseSource, a frequent committer to the Apache Camel project and the co-author of the authoritative reference work “Camel in Action.” “This webinar will help those who already use Camel be more effective and at the same time, provide those who haven’t tried it with a primer on why it’s such a valuable component of so many open source and enterprise integration and messaging distributions.”

Details include:

Who/What:		Claus Ibsen will present “Apache Camel – How to go from Enterprise Integration Patterns (EIPs) to Production,” a one-hour webinar that will explore how Apache Camel enables software developers and architects to address the “plumbing” issues that arise in integration projects with ease – freeing them to focus more of their attention on mission-critical business challenges. Ibsen will also share insights that reveal why popular open source projects, including Activiti, Akka, Drools, Grails, Play!, Apache ServiceMix and Smooks – as well as numerous enterprise service bus (ESB) servers – include Apache Camel in their distributions.

When:		Tuesday, August 23 from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. EDT

Based on the integration patterns developed by Gregor Hohpe and Bobby Woolf, Apache Camel originated four years ago. James Strachan, technical director and software fellow at FuseSource and co-founder of the project with Rob Davies – now CTO of FuseSource – posted the first commit of the project on March 19, 2007.

In the years since, Apache Camel has emerged as one of the most popular integration frameworks and a singular example of open source technology that gives developers the freedom they need to solve real world business problems cost effectively and quickly – all while benefiting from and contributing to one of the most vibrant and innovative open source communities, the Apache Software Foundation.

“This webinar is merely another reflection of our commitment to help more developers and architects realize the proven superiority and value of Apache Camel,” added Ibsen. “If you don’t use it, you are working harder at application integration than you should.”

In April of this year, FuseSource introduced Eclipse-based tooling that includes a graphical user interface for use with Apache Camel that allows developers to drop and drag integration components with ease. In May, the company also sponsored and organized the inaugural CamelOne, the first event designed specifically to provide open source integration and messaging leaders and users with an opportunity to share ideas and network with their peers.
