Session Title: Building OSGi Plug-Ins for the GlassFish™ v3 Application Server Administration Console
Session Abstract: The GlassFish™ application server has become the most popular developer platform for creating Java™ Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE platform) technology-based applications. Its success owes largely to its strong community and the variety of tools and add-ons being created for it. GlassFish application server v3 embraces community collaboration, by creating a server that is immensely flexible in that it leverages OSGi and supports plug-ins.

This Hands-on Lab explores how developers can create new utilities and applications for GlassFish application server v3 by creating OSGi plug-in bundles. Participants will learn about the architecture used to create OSGi-enabled Web applications. The session presents some pitfalls and strategies to overcome them. Participants will have the option of creating one of three different plug-ins during the lab, or they can customize one of those examples to create their own unique plug-in.
