Overview

Set your dates! March 22-25 the OSGi Alliance will hold the third OSGi DevCon in cooperation with EclipseCon at the Santa Clara Hyatt. This is the premier OSGi Developer Conference offering a large number of presentations that you just can't miss if you are working with OSGi or if you are intending to use the technology in the coming year.

Enterprise The 2010 conference will be aligned with the introduction of the OSGi Enterprise Release. The Enterprise Expert Group has been working hard to create this release and there will be a focus on the specifications created in this group. If you're using (or intend to use) OSGi in the Enterprise, this is the event to come to.

Residential OSGi technology is also becoming popular in the Residential automation. A surprising large number of projects are taking place, mainly in Europe, that have OSGi as one of their foundation building blocks in their architecture. This a market of gigantic proportions. We will make sure there is ample of attention to this emerging market.

Tooling One of the major pain points in OSGi development is the absence of good tools. Though Eclipse provides an excellent basis for the development of bundles, it lacks the convenience and ease of use that have become custom in the JEE world for web applications. We will therefore pay special attention to the tool chain and overall software development life cycle.

Discounts for Early Registration It is advised to register as soon as possible. Early registration is $1,295 and will be available until the 31st of December, 2009. Eclipse members, committers, alumni and OSGi DevCon visitors will receive a 15 per cent discount.
