The official conference, trainings and expo of the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) will run to Atlanta this November, with dozens of sessions on Servers, Cloud Computing, Search, NoSQL, Incubating projects, innovations, emerging technologies and more.

With the use of OSGi growing world-wide, ApacheCon would not be complete without a track dedicated to the project that started it all, the Apache HTTP Server.
Apache Felix and related projects. The Project Management Committee (PMC) are currently planning our own technical track for ApacheCon.
We are solliciting 50-minute presentations for our conference track, to fill one day at the conference.

The main theme of the Apache Felix / OSGi track revolves around "OSGi in the real world". OSGi, the Apache Felix framework and related projects are state of the art for Java development on the server, desktop or embedded device. A lot of innovation is happening here. The track focusses on tooling, patterns and other useful and exciting topics.

Submissions are open to anyone with relevant expertise: ASF affiliation is not required to present at, attend, or otherwise participate in ApacheCon.
