OSGi DevCon 2012
Converting any large application to be OSGi based is a difficult and complex process. Many projects find the fences that OSGi put in place puts insurmountable barriers in the way of success. Many projects get a short way through to embrace the concept of modules, but frequently they get no further and as a result they do not see the many benefits of OSGi.
In this talk the speaker will discuss the trails and tribulations of moving a large software product (WebSphere Application Server) to being based on OSGi and how the new liberty profile embraces OSGi services to produce a more lightweight and flexible server runtime.
For those aware of the Modularity Maturity Model the liberty project aims to move WebSphere Application Server from Level 2 to Level 6.
