  HIGHLIGHT

  OSGi in Action

  is the definitive guide to OSGi, the hottest technology available

  for creating modular enterprise Java applications.

  DESCRIPTION

  What is OSGi? Simply put, OSGi is a standardized technology that allows

  developers to create the highly modular Java applications that are required for

  enterprise development. OSGi lets you install, start, stop, update, or uninstall

  components without taking down your entire system. The interest in OSGibased

  applications has exploded since major vendors like Sun, Spring, Oracle,

  BEA, and IBM have gotten behind the standard.

  OSGi in Action is a comprehensive guide to OSGi with two primary goals.

  First, it provides a clear introduction to OSGi concepts with examples that are

  relevant both for architects and developers. Then, it explores numerous practical

  scenarios and techniques, answering questions like: How much of OSGi do

  you actually need? How do you embed OSGi inside other containers? What are

  the best practices for moving legacy systems to OSGi?

  KEY POINTS

  Highly-visible authors and reviewers are core members of OSGI community.

  This book is based on hands-on experience with OSGI.

  Authors have contributed to high-profile OSGi implementations, including

  Apache Felix.
