The AMI in Asterisk is analogous to the event socket in FreeSWITCH. (The
event socket is extremely powerful.) The FS developers have created ESL -
the event socket library, which abstracts away some of the mundane parts of
creating a socket connection to FS. I believe they added provisional support
for Java. We don't have a tutorial per se on the ESL, especially for Java.
However, we sure could use an adventurous Java programmer to roll up his
sleeves and help test & document all this stuff. :)

Check out src/libs/esl in the FS source tree and the event socket stuff on
the wiki:

Have fun!
