Advanced AmazonSimpleDB configuration
Copy link

If you need more control over the AmazonSimpleDB instance configuration you can create your own instance and refer to it from the URI: 
from("direct:start")
.to("aws-sdb://domainName?amazonSDBClient=#client");
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
The #client refers to a AmazonSimpleDB in the Registry.
For example if your Camel Application is running behind a firewall: 
AWSCredentials awsCredentials = new BasicAWSCredentials("myAccessKey", "mySecretKey");
ClientConfiguration clientConfiguration = new ClientConfiguration();
clientConfiguration.setProxyHost("http://myProxyHost");
clientConfiguration.setProxyPort(8080);

AmazonSimpleDB client = new AmazonSimpleDBClient(awsCredentials, clientConfiguration);

registry.bind("client", client);

pom.xml
<dependency>
