Eclipse Open Standard Business Platform (OSBP), the new project submitted by the Compex Systemhaus GmbH, has now been approved by the Eclipse Foundation. OSBP is a model-based software factory, composed of extensible frameworks, tools and runtime environments for building, deploying and managing business applications across their lifecycles.
The project has been supported by several universities and technology adopters from diverse industries. With Ed Merks and Eike Stepper two of the most influential Eclipse technology and modeling experts volunteered as project mentors.
„With OSBP project we want to establish a platform for developers, architects and engineers for creating, designing or developing model-driven business applications“ says Ralf Mollik, project co-lead and director of development at Compex Systemhaus GmbH.
OSBP has a strong relationship with other Eclipse projects, delivering both the technological basis (IDE, modeling, OSGi), as well as the application functionality (application server, internationalization service, conversions etc.).
In addition to the 10+ Eclipse projects utilized, such as EMF, Xtext, and Birt, a whole set of other open source frameworks has been integrated giving access to the power of specialized frameworks, covering practically all different aspects of engineering business applications: presentation, business logic, security, and data management tasks.
The next project step will be an IP (intellectual property) check by the Eclipse Foundation, which aims to reduce potential legal risks for the users and committers. Thereafter the source code of the OSBP software factory will be transferred to Eclipse and will build the base for joint future development.
