"Few people outside the OSGi even remotely understand the requirements and capability model, and that is their loss. However, organizations that reach the maturity level to use it will never let it go. "
I consider it a poor evangelism approach to make me feel stupid and useless. In all honesty I tried to understand OSGi about ten years ago and failed to understand how to get started and how my current project could benefit from this. So we kept using maven and eventually gradle.
- coding123 7y agoIt isn't really a competitor to maven or Gradle.
- watt 7y agoI can see how running a bunch of fat jar services each in dedicated JVM can be competitor to running loads and loads of little OSGi components in one big huge JVM.
- h_r 7y agoMaven and Gradle don't run anything in a dedicated JVM. They're just tools to accomplish various goals based on your dependencies: compile, package, test, maybe deploy. Not even remotely similar to runtime module management like you get in OSGi.
