Carbon 5 (C5) is the base of the next generation of WSO2 middlewere platform. 10 years back WSO2 re-achitected the middleware platform, which allowed us to develop comprehensive middleware functionality. Though the 10-year old Carbon kernel enabled WSO2 to build enterprise-grade middleware products, it’s now almost outdated. Generic server concepts, APIs and implementations from Apache Axis2 are now obsolete. Also In-JVM multitenancy is not the optimal solution in today’s container focused world. In this session, Sameera will talk about Carbon 5 – a complete redesign of the existing Carbon kernel. Carbon 5 provides a composable server architecture for you to build enterprise-grade servers. Based on OSGi, Carbon 5 allows you to develop componentized/modular servers. Pluggable runtimes, Artifact Deployment engine, Transport framework, light-weight repository and clustering framework are some of the features of Carbon 5.
