OSGi & Java EE: A hybrid approach to Enterprise Java Application Development, Sahoo
2 likes2,500 views
The document discusses the integration of OSGi (Open Services Gateway initiative) and Java EE (Enterprise Edition) to develop hybrid applications, combining features from both frameworks. It covers OSGi's service-oriented architecture, modularity, and benefits, alongside the use of Java EE APIs for enterprise applications. The content also outlines various advanced use cases, tools for development, and encourages the exploration of hybrid application development through tutorials and resources.

- 8. 8 Module Layer • Bundle – a unit of modularity in OSGi • Encapsulation • Lifecycle independent of the JVM • Versionable • Packaged as a JAR (classes + Manifest with OSGi metadata) • Very explicit dependency specification • Well defined dependency resolution rules
- 9. 9 Bundle-SymbolicName: com.acme.hello.startup Bundle-Name: Hello World OSGi Sample Bundle-Version: 1.0.1 Bundle-ManifestVersion: 2 Bundle-Activator: com.acme.hello.startup.MyActivator Export-Package: com.acme.hello.startup;version=1.0.0 Import-Package: org.osgi.framework;version=1.3 OSGi Metadata
- 10. 10 Classloading in OSGi Image from the OSGi R4 Core Specification
- 11. 11 Lifecycle Layer • Provides an API to manage bundles – BundleContext.install – BundleContext.uninstall – Bundle.update • BundleActivator • BundleListener – listen to BundleEvents – Synchronous – Asynchronous
- 12. 12 Bundle Lifecycle Image from the OSGi R4 Core Specification
- 13. 13 Service Layer • In-VM SOA • Service Registry – Register – Unregister • Service is a POJO • Service Dynamism – Service tracking • Service Discovery – LDAP filter based queries
- 14. 14 Interactions between OSGi Layers Image from the OSGi R4 Core Specification
- 15. 15 OSGi benefits – a recap • Layered approach • Modularity – Enforces modularity – Ensures class-space consistency – Enables component reuse – Supports versioning and evolution • Dynamism – Bundles – Services • Ease of deployment and management – OBR • Bundle deployment order is not relevant – Faster deployment cycle

- 18. 18 Java EE Platform of choice for enterprise applications • Widely used APIs (JPA, JTA, JAXB, JNDI) • Component Models (Servlet, EJB, JAX-RS) • Frameworks (JSF, CDI) • Ease of Use (Annotations, Convention over Configuration) • Platform provided infrastructure services (Transaction, Security, Persistence, Remoting) • Tools (IDE, Management, Monitoring) • Ubiquitous deployment platform for enterprise applications
- 19. 19 Hybrid Applications Meeting of the two worlds • OSGi + Java EE = Hybrid application • Hybrid application – An OSGi bundle – And a Java EE Archive • Leverage the capabilities of both the platforms – Enterprise applications can now • be built as modular OSGi bundles • use OBR, Config Admin, service tracking, etc. – OSGi bundles can now use Java EE services like JTA, JPA, etc.
- 20. 20 Current State • OSGi Enterprise Expert Group (EEG) – Relased OSGi Service Platform Enterprise Specification 4.2 in 2010 • Open source efforts – Project GlassFish – Project Aries – Eclipse Gemini
- 21. 21 OSGi/Web Application (WAB) • Web Application Bundle (WAB) – WAR + OSGi metadata + Web-ContextPath header • Can use all enterprise APIs (like JPA, JTA) • Wrapped WAR support – webbundle: URL scheme
- 22. 22 Bundle-SymbolicName: com.acme.hellowab Bundle-Name: Hello World OSGi Web Application Bundle-Version: 1.0.0 Bundle-ManifestVersion: 2 Bundle-Activator: com.acme.hellowab.MyActivator Import-Package: javax.servlet; javax.servlet.http; version=3.0, org.osgi.framework; version=1.5 Bundle-ClassPath: WEB-INF/classes, WEB-INF/lib/foo.jar Web-ContextPath: /hello OSGi Metadata of a WAB

- 25. 25 EE APIs in OSGi • OSGi/JDBC – JDBC driver as DataSourceFactory – Dynamic discovery of driver details – Multiple versions of same driver • OSGi/JTA – JTA artifacts available as OSGi Services • OSGi/JPA – Enhancement of JPA entities at runtime – Same packaging rules as JPA and also deploy entities as a bundle – Shared Persistence Unit and thereby shared second level cache
- 26. 26 Tools • BND (http://www.aqute.biz/Code/Bnd) – de-facto tool for OSGi metadata generation – maven-bundle-plugin – Ant task • IDE – Eclipse – NetBeans – IntelliJ IDEA

- 29. 29 OSGi/EJB Application • Allows you to develop managed, transactional, secure OSGi services with very little knowledge of OSGi • Make your existing EJB service available to OSGi clients with little effort • Achieved through simple manifest metadata – Export-EJB: ALL/None/<names of stateless local EJB>

- 31. 31 CDI • Brings type-safe dependency injection to EE platform – Strong typing and loose coupling • Well defined life cycle of stateful objects bound to life cycle contexts • Ability to decorate and intercept injected Beans • An event notification model • An ability to develop portable extensions that integrates with the container to extend the runtime
- 32. 32 GlassFish CDI/OSGi Portable Extension • Use of CDI for type safe injection of OSGi services @WebServlet(urlPatterns = “/login”) public class FooServlet implements HttpServlet { @Inject @org.glassfish.osgicdi.OSGiService( dynamic=”true”, timeout = 200, serviceCriteria=<an ldap query >) FooService foo; }
