Apache Conference 2010- Atlanta

I was a speaker at ApacheCon NA 2010 held in Atlanta, GA on 1-5 November 2010. The confernce has an updated name that reflects our expanded presence in North America and a program that showcases our growing Apache projects.


My Topic
Several companies successfully migrate several preparatory licensed software to apache open sources. This track covers the secret of success in implementing open source software some of the enterprises. Attendees learn the challenges, approach, issues, execution strategy and details of the cost saving by migrating applications built and deployed using licensed software to open source. Some of the enterprises had achieved lower total cost of ownership, reduced dependence on software vendors, easier customization of the products, higher level of security and developer productivity by implementing the Apache open source software.

I will upload my presentation soon.

It is surprising that how much uncertainty have at open source community about Oracle's acquisition of Sun. Almost all the Apache software being developed using Java. The Apache Harmoney project is still not in front stage.

Some of the announcements like "Mac not planning support Java" add more concerns. \

OSGI
OSGi Alliance created the Enterprise Expert Group was created in 2007, to address the growing need for standards covering modularity in Enterprise applications. Their first specifications were published in March 2010 covering some important basic building blocks for Enterprise applications. There are, however, a number of areas, as yet unaddressed.

OSGi is the de facto standard module system for Java and as such has found its way into many applications and products, ranging from embedded to enterprise. However, modularity is only part of the advantage that OSGi brings. Loosely coupling components using light weight services and using them to dynamically compose your application is arguably the biggest benefit.
