According to the Carbon architecture, all functionality and features available in Carbon products are built using OSGI bundles. Therefore, it is possible to extend the features available in the Carbon platform by adding new OSGI bundles to the product build. You can also add JAR files that are not OSGI bundles into the product build, which will be converted into OSGI bundles during server startup. All these OSGI bundles/JARs are stored in the OSGI repository of the product.
