The Spring Integration project provides a natural extension to the Spring programming model to support many of the Enterprise Integration Patterns described in the book of the same name. The components are configured declaratively with either annotations or XML and are managed within any Spring Application Context. Therefore, Spring Integration is very easy to adopt incrementally within an existing Spring-based application, and there are no additional deployment requirements.

In this demo-driven session, we will begin with a sample application that includes a pre-existing service layer. We will proceed to enhance the application while maintaining a clean separation of concerns between the integration responsibilities and the business logic within that service layer. The integration components will include Polling Consumers, Content-Based Routers, Splitters, Transformers, Service Activators, and more. We will also explore Channel Adapters and Messaging Gateways to connect to different systems using Spring Integration's support for JMS, Mail, and File-based transports.
