Welcome to Apache Camel
===============================================================================
-Apache Camel is a powerful Spring based Integration Framework.
+Apache Camel is a powerful open source integration framework based on
+known Enterprise Integration Patterns with powerful Bean Integration.
-Camel implements the Enterprise Integration Patterns allowing you to configure
-routing and mediation rules in either a Java based Domain Specific Language
-(or Fluent API) or via Spring based XML Configuration files. Either approaches
-mean you get smart completion of routing rules in your IDE whether in your
-Java or XML editor.
+Camel lets you create the Enterprise Integration Patterns to implement routing
+and mediation rules in either a Java based Domain Specific Language
+(or Fluent API), via Spring based Xml Configuration files or via the Scala DSL.
+This means you get smart completion of routing rules in your IDE whether in
+your Java, Scala or XML editor.
Apache Camel uses URIs so that it can easily work directly with any kind of
-transport or messaging model such as HTTP, ActiveMQ, JMS, JBI, SCA, MINA
-or CXF Bus API together with and working with pluggable Data Format options.

Apache Camel can be used as a routing and mediation engine for the
following projects:
+ * Apache ServiceMix which is the most popular and powerful distributed
+ open source ESB, JBI and OSGi container
* Apache ActiveMQ which is the most popular and powerful open
source message broker
* Apache CXF which is a smart web services suite (JAX-WS and JAX-RS)
* Apache MINA a networking framework
