About WSO2 Carbon

WSO2 Carbon is a component based Enterprise SOA platform. The design of WSO2 Carbon focuses on separating the key functionality of the SOA platform into separate pluggable Carbon components that can be mixed and matched, like customizable building blocks. This allows you to add only the functionality you need to start up, and continue to add product capabilities as your requirements grow. This helps a business to quickly adapt to changes.

OSGi is used as the underlying core modularization technology within the Carbon platform. The Carbon framework is shipped with Eclipse Equinox by default, but can be supported on Spring dm Server, Felix or Knoplerfish if required. The OSGi technology even allows you to write your business functionality as an OSGi component and deploy it in the existing Carbon platform.

For a quick start on using the WSO2 Carbon platform, the Carbon components are pre-assembled into the following products:

You can assemble your own products by combining components and deploying them in a preferred architecture. WSO2 Carbon offers P2 based provisioning support as well. Please visit the Carbon product page for more information.

The WSO2 Carbon platform gives maximum flexibility to adapt the middleware to your enterprise architecture, rather than adapt your architecture to the middleware.
