Preface
Welcome to Apache Karaf Cookbook. This Cookbook has been created to provide you with best practices and lessons learned from working with Apache Karaf in the trenches.
The recipes in this book are not to be read in a serial manner. Readers are expected to pick and choose recipes as per their needs. We've taken the greatest care to make sure it's possible to refer to foundational knowledge wherever applicable. However, we do expect our audience to have some background in OSGi, Karaf, and the packages each recipe focuses on. Readers requiring more background information on Karaf and OSGi might seek out the following books:
- Learning Apache Karaf, Johan Edstrom, Jamie Goodyear, and Heath Kesler, Packt Publishing
- Instant OSGi Starter, Johan Edstrom and Jamie Goodyear, Packt Publishing
