I'm pleased to echo the following ServiceMix announcement:

"The Apache ServiceMix team is pleased to annouce the release of Apache ServiceMix 4.0.

Download links and detailed release notes are available at
http://servicemix.apache.org/smx4/servicemix-400.html

Apache ServiceMix 4.0 is the first release of our OSGi based integration platform. It includes two major components:

  • Apache ServiceMix Kernel 1.1.0 : an OSGi runtime with a lot of extra features (SSH connectivity,provisioning enhancements, Spring integration, ...)
  • Apache ServiceMix NMR 1.0.0 : an OSGi based NMR and JBI container, which also comes with a new clustering engine ready for enterprise deployment

In addition, ServiceMix 4.0 also ships with enhanced ActiveMQ, Camel and CXF integration as well as a whole set of examples to let you leverage this functionality. We also have out-of-the-box support for deploying and running web applications, so they can run together with everything else in the same container."

Apache ServiceMix NMR 1.0.0 Released!

Hi All, Just wanted to echo the ServiceMix NMR 1.0.0 Release announcement.

"The Apache ServiceMix team is pleased to announce the release of Apache ServiceMix NMR 1.0.0.

Apache ServiceMix NMR 1.0.0 is the first release of our JBI container based on OSGi. This distribution is a minimal JBI container, if you are looking for a more features distribution, we'll welcome you to have a look at Apache ServiceMix 4.0.0 instead, which includes all the JBI components provided by ServiceMix."
