Hello Jürgen Yes I agree with you, that a microservice architecture has become a fashion more than a technology, in itself, and a lot of projects ended up failing, this is why we're tryin to find out how new microservice architecture could be more efficient for our business need and if it will bring a real added value to our projets. in other hand, , we use maven-bundle-plugin (apache.Felix) to build our osgi jars and when you deduce that we use an older vesion of osgi because we use Blueprint, do you recommand that we replace it by DS when we upgrade our karaf version, now we use Karaf 4.0.6 regarding BND tools, honestly I don't see the added value that can bring in OSGI project (except testing).
