Deploy Red Hat AMQ Streams and Fuse on OpenShift Container Platform 4

By Mary Cochran October 3, 2019October 1, 2019

In the following video, I demonstrate how to deploy Red Hat AMQ Streams (based on upstream Apache Kafka) on OpenShift 4.

I will also demonstrate how to use AMQ Streams in a basic way using Red Hat Fuse.  There is a Camel route exposing a REST endpoint at /goodbye, which—when hit—sends a “Goodbye World” message to the topic.  There is also a timer sending “Hello World” messages periodically to the topic.  A separate Camel route consumes from the topic and logs the messages for our visibility.

Unit Testing for Camel Rest DSL and Spring Boot

By Mary Cochran April 4, 2018January 29, 2019

Hopefully by now, you know how to write your first Rest DSL Camel Route using Spring Boot.  If not, check this post first. Now that you have your route written, it’s time to write a unit test for it.  Many people find Apache Camel unit testing a big struggle to figure out.  Luckily, when using Spring Boot with the Apache Camel Rest DSL testing, a Rest Route isn’t too difficult.

3Scale Developer Portal Docs Per Application

By Mary Cochran January 24, 2018September 3, 2019

Having Swagger Documentation in any developer portal is very important for developers to know how to use APIs.  However, not all developers may be using the same applications.  How can you make it so developers only see the docs relevant to them?  Luckily some JavaScript magic can make this possible for the 3Scale developer portal.

Securing AMQ7 Routers with SSL

By Mary Cochran November 30, 2017November 29, 2017

AMQ7 is full of new and exciting technology and capabilities. However, with both routers and brokers now securing your topology can get confusing. Particularly securing the routers and learning how to use clients with them, using AMQP can be challenging for those of us used to using jks files and pure jms.

Camel Clustered File Ingestion with JDBC and Spring

By Mary Cochran September 8, 2017September 22, 2017

Reading a file is a common use for Apache Camel. From using a file to kick off a larger route to simply needing to store the file content, the ability to only read a file once is important. This is easy when you have a single server with your route deployed, but what about when you deploy your route to multiple servers. Thankfully, Camel has the concept of an Idempotent Consumer.

Using Clustered Camel Quartz Jobs on JBoss EAP

By Mary Cochran August 10, 2017August 8, 2017

Camel Quartz can be a useful component for jobs that need to run at a particular time every day. Recently on a client site, we had a need for about 15 different jobs that each created a differently formatted file and send each file to a particular destination. While this was straightforward to get setup on a single machine, once we started deploying our camel routes to multiple servers the jobs started to kick off on both machines. To resolve this issue we needed to create a job store.

The Camel Rest DSL

By Mary Cochran February 2, 2017February 1, 2017

Camel

Apache Camel is a piece of JBoss Fuse.  It is an open source integration framework with a variety of components to fit your integration needs.  Camel is a Java-based implementation of the Enterprise Integration Patterns based on a book by Gregor Hohpe and Bobby Woolf.  Camel includes components for HTTP, Files, FTP, JMS, JDBC, AWS, and much more.  While Camel can be used for many different purposes, this post will focus on the REST DSL specifically.
