h1. EIP

EIP stands for *Enterprise Integration Patterns*.
EIP is not a standard, but a solution to integration issues. It is based on a book that lists patterns to solve communication and routing issues between applications or systems.

The most famous implementation of EIP is Apache Camel. It allows to define _routes_ and facilitates the use of EIP.
At the time Camel was created, Petals developed its own EIP implementation, in a JBI component for EIP. This component is very efficient and robust, but however supports less patterns than Camel. Due to different objectives, Petals EIP remained in the scope of Petals.
