Open Grid Services Infrastructure at eBay: Easy Integration of Multiple Platforms

Application environments and even languages get popular and wane. Once companies invest in a particular application environment, it is usually stuck with its decision. Migration to the next generation platform is difficult and costly. Raptor is the next generation application platform and environment for eBay. Using OSGI (Open Grid Services Infrastructure) technologies and application environment independence, it allows an easy integration of multiple application platforms/frameworks, or even languages. Raptor allows for non-disruptive adaptations to newer platforms and application environments as they emerge. In this session, hear how Raptor as a platform endorses and unblocks new innovations to be used in eBay without revamping the whole eBay application infrastructure.
