Appendix A. ServiceMix 4.0

The examples in this book are based on ServiceMix version 3.2.1, which is the latest production release at the time of writing. But a milestone of the next version of ServiceMix is already available: version 4.0. This version of ServiceMix is based on a new architecture and therefore has many changes compared to version 3.x. We chose to use ServiceMix 3.2.1 in this book because ServiceMix 4 wasn’t yet available. With ServiceMix 4.0, it will only become easier for integration developers to use ServiceMix in your integration projects.

Let’s look at the new architecture of ServiceMix 4.0 in the first section. After that, we show you an example of how you can use ServiceMix 4.
