OSGi Service Platform

Blue Martini - enabling the mobile Sales force

A no-compromise “sometimes connected” deployment model that provides the same functionality and user experience as the

current online (browser-server) application

Desire:

Result:

based on:

Extension Services for WebSphere Everyplacewhich in turn is based onOSGi Service Platform

A no-compromise “sometimes connected” deployment model that provides the same functionality and user experience as the

current online (browser-server) application

Creating an OSGi Application

! Enter a project name! Select your platform profile! Add OSGi services

! Write a mobile device application as you would a J2EE web application

! Deploy to OSGi enabled device

! A stock quote web service client bundle

! Generated web service client code

! Running in WSDD

! OSGi compliant SMF bundle server and SMF runtime accessible via SMF perspective

Lessons learned during this evolution

Creation of Vehicle Expert Group to address unique Automotive Electronics needs, bringing key players together, resulting in new capabilities for Release 3 of the OSGi Service Platform

Interaction with industry standards organizations and creation of OSGi expert groups by marquee industry sponsors

Dramatic increase in the widespread adoption of the OSGi Service Platform for In-Vehicle Information & Telematics Systems

Result

Promote & extend OSGi Service Platform for industry verticals to componentize & add network dynamism to pre-existing static device environments

Address massive increase in system complexity of embedded software in devices

OSGi Directors & Officers proactively spread the word, and also drive to reposition the organization (PR & web presence)

Cross-industry education of the applicability of the OSGi Service Platform

Liaison with Automotive Multimedia Interface Collaboration (AMI-C)

Mobile Expert Group (MEG)

! Created by OSGi Board of Directors on Friday, October 10, 2003.

# Formation driven by 2 key industry players Motorola & Nokia, with strong initial support by Deutsche Telekom, Espial, IBM & ProSyst Software

# Will define requirements and specifications to tailor and extendthe OSGi Service Platform for mobile devices that are data-capable, and also capable of connecting to wireless networks

# Starting with development of an OSGi specification for the management of CDC Foundation based environments on mobile digital handsets
