Chapter 1. What's New


Abstract

This section describes the main features and changes in version 6.1.

New features

The following list describes the main features in version 6.1:
  • Full support for AMQP 1.0. Out-of-the-box wire-level compatibility across connections.
    Note
    AMQP 1.0 is not a supported protocol for the JBoss A-MQ JCA connector (Apache ActiveMQ resource adapter, which is the plug-in for integrating JBoss A-MQ with the JBoss Enterprise Application Platform container). OpenWire is the only wire protocol supported by the JCA connector.
  • Broker configuration modification no longer requires restarting the services.
  • Improved high availability (HA). Embedded message store for shared-nothing HA configuration.
  • Certification of the JBoss A-MQ resource adapater with JBoss EAP 6.
  • Support for the MQTT 3.1.1 draft specification.
  • Extensive connectors library. More than 200 out-of-the-box-connectors with Apache Camel and new connectors for Salesforce and SAP.
  • New Fuse Management Console. Improved out-of-the-box management console based on the hawt.io Web console. You can now start, stop, measure and trace Camel routes on-premise or in the cloud.

  • Insight metrics for Kibana and ElasticSearch profiles
  • Process manager (for more details see Fabric8 Process Containers)

  • Java Business Integration (JBI). You can configure JBI containers to use Camel routes.
  • Normalized Message Route (NMR). You can configure bundle-to-bundle communication to use direct-vm Camel routes, or JMS message transport.
  • ActiveMQ Web console. You can use the ActiveMQ tab on the Fuse Management Console instead.
