Abstract

Apache Camel is an implementation of a messaging framework using the enterprise integration patterns advanced by Hohpe and Woolf. This framework allows the messaging architecture to be configured at run-time, by changing routing rules which determine the disposition of messages transmitted by the system. Our work illustrates an original use of the dynamic routing capability to implement health information policy, by putting the routing rules in the hands of policy administrators rather than network managers. This paper is an extended version of reference [1].
