Hi, On our project we have been using Hazelcast for a couple of months now and we are looking to increase usage of Hazelcast with distributed queues. I was hoping to use Apache Camel to retrieve and process the messages in our hazelcast cluster. (The camel route would be deployed together with the hazelcast instance, and you would have as many camel route instances as hazelcast cluster instances)
I had a closer look at the camel-hazelcast component. When diving into the source code of the camel-hazelcast module I was very surprised to read the sources of class HazelcastQueueConsumer: it is implemented as an ItemListener. For our clustered environment this would imply that each message would be processed on each cluster member. Which defeats the point-to-point messaging model. And even if the messages are processed, they remain on the queue too. So basically I wonder what the camel-hazelcast is meant to be used for? Can anybody explain this implementation? Also, is it possible to implement our scenario with camel-hazelcast? Thanks for your help, Benoit
