:OSGi in Banking

OSGi in Banking
OSGi, the dynamic module system for Java, holds the potential to transform the way banking software is built. Strong modularity and reusable components promise to break apart the "silo" or "stovepipe" architectures that prevent collaboration between different business areas in a bank IT organisation. Dynamic deployment and on-the-fly updates support provisioning of applications, both to desktops and to the Cloud.

Yet, there are challenges as well. Modularity and dynamicity require a rethink of some traditional Java development practices, and many existing enterprise libraries work poorly under such an environment. The benefits of OSGi are sometimes hard to see when faced with unfamiliar errors arising in previously working third-party JARs.

In this presentation Neil will discuss real-world benefits and best practices learned from using OSGi in one of the largest Wall Street banks, including some of the pitfalls and road-blocks encountered along way, and how to avoid them.
