Apache Camel by the Numbers: 19 Years of Open Source Integration

When the first commit landed on March 19, 2007, Apache Camel was a routing library with a handful of components and a single contributor. Nineteen years later, the git repository has crossed 100,000 commits from 1,500+ contributors representing 450+ companies across more than 20 countries. The project ships 311 integration components, has published 300+ releases, and runs in production at organizations where downtime means grounded flights, blocked payments, or missed diagnoses.
