OSGi applications

The OSGi applications support in WebSphere® Application Server helps you develop and deploy modular applications that use both Java™ EE and OSGi technologies. You can design and build applications and suites of applications from coherent, versioned, reusable OSGi modules that are accessed only through well-defined interfaces. This enables the same, or different, applications to use different versions of the same third party libraries without interference.

Apache Aries is an open community project that brings the modularity, dynamism, and versioning of the OSGi service platform to enterprise application developers, by implementing key EEG specifications. Apache Aries delivers a simple to use and lightweight programming model for web applications that combines the standard Blueprint component model with familiar Java enterprise technologies. Apache Aries includes an implementation of the OSGi service platform Version 4.2 Blueprint component model for fine-grained assembly, and provides an assembly model for applications that consist of multiple modules.

The OSGi applications support in WebSphere Application Server includes the following major features:
