Example

We want to load balance between three endpoints in random mode.

This is done as follows:

Java
XML

from("direct:start")
    .loadBalance().random()
        .to("seda:x")
        .to("seda:y")
        .to("seda:z")
    .end();

<route>
    <from uri="direct:start"/>
    <loadBalance>
       <randomLoadBalancer/>
       <to uri="seda:x"/>
       <to uri="seda:y"/>
       <to uri="seda:z"/>
    </loadBalance>
</route>
