Chapter 9. Viewing and managing Apache Camel applications
In the Fuse Console’s Camel tab, you view and manage Apache Camel contexts, routes, and dependencies.
You can view the following details:
- A list of all running Camel contexts
- Detailed information of each Camel context such as Camel version number and runtime statics
- Lists of all routes in each Camel application and their runtime statistics
- Graphical representation of the running routes along with real time metrics
You can also interact with a Camel application by:
- Starting and suspending contexts
- Managing the lifecycle of all Camel applications and their routes, so you can restart, stop, pause, resume, etc.
- Live tracing and debugging of running routes
- Browsing and sending messages to Camel endpoints
