My advice is always to start with Tomcat and stay there until you find you've a requirement which means you've gotta go OSGi, just because its so much easier to work with. You can start & stop routes and edit them at run time easily - particularly using the web console... http://camel.apache.org/web-console.html the main reason for starting/stopping a web app is if you need to change the Java code. -- James ------- http://macstrac.blogspot.com/ Open Source Integration http://fusesource.com/
