2nd Annual OSGi Survey
Kirk an industry analyst at Burton Group. For 15 years, I worked in the trenches on real software projects. I believe software development is an amazing profession. I take a keen interest in design, architecture, application development platforms, agile development, and the IT industry in general, especially as it relates to software development. I also enjoy experimenting with new technology, whether it be the the cool new framework or tethering my smartphone to my Mac via Bluetooth to get an internet connection.

Last year, I conducted a survey to gauge industry acceptance, adoption, and understanding of OSGi. I posted a summary of the results on my site with more detail on the APS Burton Group blog. With SpringOne2GX approaching in less than one week, I decided to offer the same survey to get a feel where OSGi has gone over the past year. I contemplated changing a few of the questions to reflect what I thought would be more relevant this year, but decided against it because I really wanted an apples-to-apples comparison. The survey certainly isn’t scientific, but it’ll sure offer some decent (and maybe even interesting) insight to the OSGi market.
The Survey consists of 10 simple questions, and should take only a few minutes of your time. So if you’re involved with development on the Java platform, and can spare a few moments, your time would be greatly appreciated. I plan to stop collecting responses on Monday, October 19th, and hope to share the results in my session at SpringOne2GX next week titled Agile Architecture - Technologies and Patterns, as well as sharing the details in a blog post.
