Hi Camel riders, tl;dr - check the sample [4] and ToC at the end of the PDF.
This is a quick heads up about the Camel ebook I published recently. It is on Amazon [1] and LeanPub [2] and I believe it is very relevant for the users on this list. I've been using Camel for a number of years now and I've seen tens of different projects with different customers. Regardless of the stack and the architecture, Camel has always been the key to the timely delivery of the projects and source of joy for developers (that latter might be my perception since my bias though). During the years I've been getting many questions around designing and best practises with Camel based applications. I regularly blog about my Camel experiences [3], but this time thought that it is more than a blog post or two. So, during the last couple of month I manged to put my experiences with Camel into an e-book. It doesn't contain any Camel syntax, code examples, or EIP explanations. Instead it contains common patterns, use cases, (best) practises, tips to be aware of. It has around 20 patterns/practises/use cases, with diagrams explained over 35K words. I cover concepts such as VETRO, Reusable routes, Error Handling, Compensating Transactions, Circuit Breaker (hey have you tried the Camel-Hystrix connector in master?), different types of retries, etc. A free sample chapter is available here [4]. If interested, also check the list of patterns at the end of the book to get a better idea.
