Description

Calling kamelets should be done via endpoints, so its like calling any other camel component.

The Kamelet EIP is a special EIP that are designed for special situations for kamelets when you want a kamelet to have sub children that are only executed when the kamelet decides (when its kamelet:source is hit).

This allows to make kamelets acts as splitter, aggregators and other complex EIPs.
