Apache Camel K

This version (1.6.x) of Camel K depends on:

camel-k-runtime (undocumented) at version 1.9.1, and therefore:
- camel-quarkus at version 2.3.0 (no longer documented).
- Camel at version 3.11.2.
- Quarkus at version 2.3.0.Final.
- GraalVM at version 21.2.0.
camel-kamelets at version 0.4.0 (never documented).

This release will not be updated, but rather replaced by a new release.

Apache Camel K is a lightweight integration framework built from Apache Camel that runs natively on Kubernetes and is specifically designed for serverless and microservice architectures.

Users of Camel K can instantly run integration code written in Camel DSL on their preferred cloud (Kubernetes or OpenShift).

How It Works

Just write a helloworld.groovy integration file with the following content:

from('timer:tick?period=3000')
  .setBody().constant('Hello world from Camel K')
  .to('log:info')

You can then execute the following command:

kamel run helloworld.groovy

The integration code immediately runs in the cloud. Nothing else is needed.

Continue reading the documentation to install and get started with Camel K.
