Standard with several implementations (Equinox, Knoplerfish, etc) Used as engine for open source Eclipse IDE EUFORIA FP7-INFRASTRUCTURES , Grant OSGi bundles A bundle is a JAR file Bundles can be remotely installed, started, stopped, updated or uninstalled on the fly Bundles can share Java packages among an exporter bundle and an importer bundle in a well-defined way. OSGi services OSGi service is a java object instance, registered into an OSGi framework with a set of properties. Any java object can be registered as a service, Service implements a well-known interface Bundles can register services, search for them, or receive notifications when their registration state changes.
