Cloud-native Integration with Red Hat Fuse and Apache Camel Training in South Africa

Accelerate cloud-native integration using Red Hat Fuse and Apache Camel — a lightweight, flexible, and powerful integration framework for modern enterprise environments.

The course “Cloud-native Integration with Red Hat Fuse and Apache Camel (AD221)” teaches developers how to design, develop, and deploy integration solutions across on-premise and cloud environments using Red Hat Fuse 7.10 and OpenShift 4.

You’ll learn how to use Camel routes, processors, and components to create robust, reusable integration architectures, while applying Enterprise Integration Patterns (EIP) and cloud-native principles to real-world use cases.

This course is based on Red Hat Fuse 7.10 and Red Hat OpenShift 4.

• Experience with Java development or completion of Red Hat Application Development I: Programming in Java EE (AD183).

• Familiarity with IDE tools (e.g., Visual Studio Code).

• Basic knowledge of Maven, version control (e.g., Git), and Red Hat OpenShift (recommended, not required).

This course is intended for:

• Java developers designing and implementing enterprise integration solutions.

• Software engineers building integration layers between microservices and legacy systems.

• Deploy Fuse applications on Red Hat OpenShift.

• Build and consume REST APIs with Camel REST DSL.

• Implement unit testing, mocks, and error handling for Camel routes.

• Apply Enterprise Integration Patterns (EIP) using Camel components.

• Connect Camel applications to databases and Apache Kafka.

• Integrate cloud-native services using Camel K.

• Consume REST services via the Camel HTTP component.

Impact on the Organization

By adopting Red Hat Fuse and Apache Camel, organizations can:

• Accelerate integration development with reusable enterprise patterns.

• Simplify the management of complex data flows and APIs.

• Reduce maintenance overhead by unifying integration across hybrid and cloud-native environments.

Impact on the Individual

After completing this course, you will:

• Understand the architecture and core concepts of Apache Camel.
• Be able to develop and deploy Camel routes for integrating diverse systems (JMS, FTP, DB, REST).
• Implement EIP patterns to build scalable integration workflows.
• Write unit tests and use mock components for route validation.
• Deploy integration applications to Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform confidently.
