are reviewed, as well as the associated Smooks resource
configurations. Out-of-the-box transformations are also covered.
-
-
- 5.Routing
- This module discusses various routing patterns, in particular
those implementable with a content based router. The JBoss ESB
content based router is discussed, along with a quick introduction
