Hi Rafa and all

In my opinion, the Content Hub back in Stanbol for Semantic Search
capabilities is a great use case to be implemented.
Waiting for Florent's opinion, I could start first only with Solr (whose
component already exists in Camel but it needs to be adapted like the
ActiveMQ component) and creating a custom transformer bean for Camel to
have the original Content Hub. After that, we could think to create the
SIREn component and the new transformer for it, giving the users the
possibility of use one of them.

What do you think? Is It an interesting use case for the Camel integration
application?

Regards
