Cloud computing is one of the
hottest topics currently discussed in the IT sector. Although there are many
different definitions of the term 'Cloud', providing remote services is at the
center of Cloud computing. Eclipse is hosting a webinar to demonstrate how
"goodies" from different Eclipse projects can be combined to build
applications on Cloud infrastructures.

Together, Equinox and OSGi provide a
fundamental infrastructure for defining modules, managing lifecycles and
facilitating collaboration between modules. Both are addressing the programming
challenges in dynamic, modular and extensible systems.
The webinar will start with a short
introduction to Cloud computing. Using the g-Eclipse framework, a distributed,
virtual infrastructure will be set-up. Leveraging OSGi and ECF frameworks, a
manageable distributed runtime will be started in order to deploy an
application dynamically. The front end for the application will be provided
with the support of the RAP application. The live demonstration will show how
"goodies" from the Eclipse ecosystem can be combined to build a
future SaaS platform.
