Simulating the sample scenario
Repeatedly send several requests to the ESB using the Stock Quote 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 shown above.
- endpoint [line 13 in ESB config] - Defines the endpoint where the request should be sent.
- loadbalance [line 14 in ESB config] - Defines a set of endpoints where incoming requests are distributed using a particular algorithm. In this example, the algorithm distributes messages in a weighted round-robin manner.
