In this chapter, we are going to cover the following:
EAI patterns in general
EAI patterns in ServiceMix
Working code demonstrating EAI patterns
Enterprise Integration Patterns
Enterprise integration has to be made simpler. We need to apply best practices tested
and proven in the traditional software engineering paradigms like OOP to enterprise
integration scenarios also. Reusability is a prime concern in all IT design related
decisions and this reusability has to happen at multiple levels including architecture,
design, implementation, and testing. While we architect or design for integration
problems, one way of reusing the existing artifacts is to abstract out the common
methods used for solutions and apply them again and again for recurring, similar
problems??”we call this EIP. Let us delve more into this.

Even though we do enterprise integration daily knowingly or unknowingly, it takes
some experience and a holistic approach to separate out the integration aspects
from the routine application development aspects in a systems environment.
