Gregory Joseph commented on MAGNOLIA-2352:
------------------------------------------

Would anyone have interesting links to share in this area ? I was checking 
Apache Felix's documentation very quickly, and the basic introductions/tutorial 
seem a bit too distant from what we want to achieve here -- anything more 
convincing ?

> OSGi for a module container?

> The module mechanism (bootstrapping, reloading of classes) is only done on 
> startup of Magnolia (ignoring the deployment tools).
> Maybe it is an idea to use an OSGi container (like Felix) in which to run the 
> Magnolia modules. The advantage is that you could update modules on the fly 
> without having to restart your application server. Of course you would still 
> need to think about bootstrapping JCR data.
> GX WebManager, a leading Dutch CMS, uses OSGi for their module mechanism 
> (called "WCB's", WebManager Component Bundles). This works very nicely.
> They have a community edition out but it is not an open source product..
