Camel 3.0 - Message Store Page edited by Christian Ohr Changes (11) ... h3. Summary In Camel 2.x, a *Message Store* is not a "first class citizen" in the sense of a primary architectural concept, which can be applied consistently whereever needed. Camel 3.0 should introduce a unified, generic, pluggable Message Store that consolidates the different approaches and allows to similarly parameterize persistence to various EIP patterns. It should be usable independently of EIP patterns as well. It should be usable independently of EIP patterns as well. Implementations would handle the mapping to the underlying persistence layer, which can be InMemory, RDBMS, NoSQL-based etc. and can be chosen based on the requirements towards reliability (survive system shutdowns with losing messages) and scalability (reduce memory consumption when processing many/big messages). Side note: Spring Integration provides a [corresponding concept|http://static.springsource.org/spring-integration/reference/htmlsingle/#message-store]. ... {note} * Generically, entries in a Message Store can be created, updated, read and deleted. * Ability to temporarily store exchanges for the following EIPs: ** Aggregator, Multicast, RecipientList, Splitter : alternative to AggregationRepository, making it eventually obsolete ** Streaming Resequencer (CAMEL-949) ** Stream Caching (?) ** Claim check (?) * Ability to store exchanges for a defined period of time ** Idempotent Consumer ** Dead Letter Queue (CAMEL-4575) ** Destination for the Tracer * Ability to permanently store exchanges (e.g. for audit trails) * Provide a certain level of manual retry. That is to get the original message from the store and feed it back in the originating route. * Flexibility to specify what should be stored (e.g. what exchange- and message properties) and in which format (e.g. object serialization, JSON) * Possibility to filter what exchanges should be stored (using a predicate) * Flexibility to specify what part of an exchange should be stored (e.g. what exchange properties and message headers) and in which format (e.g. object serialization, JSON, using encryption) * Possibility to provide a filter condition to determine which exchanges should be stored (e.g. only failed exchanges, only with a certain message header) * Polling Consumer to randomly access a message store * Producer to write an exchange into a message store h3. Examples This section intends to demonstrate the usage of a Message Store by providing hypotethical code snippets, e.g. {code:AggregatorExample.java} ... from(...) .aggregate() .correlationExpression(header(id)) .aggregationStrategy(myStrategy) .completionTimeout(10000) .messageStore(myStore) ... {code} Full Content Work in progress The page intends to collect all ideas and proposals around the idea of a Message Store as a architectural concept in Camel. No implementation has started yet. You can participate by sharing your input here or post it to the dev mailing list. For the initial brainstorming on the dev mailing list, please check this thread. From the Camel 3.0 ideas page (+1: hadrian, claus) We should make this EIP easier to use for end users, but offering a better public API. And also have a pluggable message store, with filters that can filter what should be stored. As well pluggable marshallers so people can marshal data from Exchange into a format the message store can store (BLOB, XML, JSon etc.). A Message Store could provide transparent persistence to various EIP patterns (or used directly). Implementations would handle the mapping to the underlying database or file system or NoSQL or memory or whatever. Message Store implementations are already there in various places, using different approaches, like in Stream Caching (only file system), AggregationRepository or IdempotentRepository. A Message Store is requested for in other places like Reliable stream resequencing (CAMEL-949) or Persistent Dead Letter Queue (CAMEL-4575).

List of proposed features Work in progress At some time we probably need to assign priorities as to what is indispensable for Camel 3.0 and what could be delivered in a later patch release Generically, entries in a Message Store can be created, updated, read and deleted.
