Simulating the sample scenario

Repeatedly send several requests to the ESB using the stockquote client as follows:

ant stockquote -Dtrpurl=http://localhost:8280/ -Dsymbol=Foo

...

Let's investigate the elements of the ESB configuration in detail. The line numbers below refer to the ESB configuration in step 3 above.

  • endpoint [line 14 in ESB config] - The endpoint element defines the endpoint to which a request should be sent to. 
  • loadbalance [line 15 in ESB config] - The loadbalance configuration defines a set of endpoints to which incoming requests are distributed to using a particular algorithm. In this example, the algorithm distributes messages in a weighted round robin manner.
