Title:

Speakers:

Simon Maple; Valentin Mahrwald

Abstract:

The Spring and OSGi frameworks are powerful tools for application development, and offer significant value to application developers. With the release of the WebSphere® Application Server Version 7 Feature Pack for OSGi Applications, WebSphere® now offers a scalable standards-based runtime for OSGi applications and dependency injection. This session will describe and demo how to migrate a Spring-based Java EE application to the OSGi container, and then how to migrate that OSGi application away from the proprietary Spring framework to the OSGi blueprint component model.
