Overview of the Patterns

FUSE Mediation Router supports most of the patterns from the book, Enterprise Integration Patterns by Gregor Hohpe and Bobby Woolf.

The messaging systems patterns, shown in Table 1.1, introduce the fundamental concepts and components that make up a messaging system.


A messaging channel is the basic component used for connecting the participants in a messaging system. The patterns in Table 1.2 describe the different kinds of messaging channels available.


The message construction patterns, shown in Table 1.3, describe the various forms and functions of the messages that pass through the system.


The message routing patterns, shown in Table 1.4, describe various ways of linking message channels together, including various algorithms that can be applied to the message stream (without modifying the body of the message).


The message transformation patterns, shown in Table 1.5, describe how to modify the contents of messages for various purposes.


A messaging endpoint denotes the point of contact between a messaging channel and an application. The messaging endpoint patterns, shown in Table 1.6, describe various features and qualities of service that can be configured on an endpoint.


The system management patterns, shown in Table 1.7, describe how to monitor, test, and administer a messaging system.
