Provisioning software is the act of placing an individual software application or a complete software stack onto a target system. What we mean by "provisioning WSO2 Carbon" is installing/updating/uninstalling features to/from the Carbon base platform upon which the entire WSO2 product stack is developed.

New features can be easily installed to the WSO2 Gadget Server by using the "WSO2 Carbon Component Manager" that comes with the Gadget Server. Component manager is powered by Equinox P2 and allows you to connect to a remote or local P2 repository and get any feature installed into the Gadget Server runtime.

P2 can be used as a provisioning platform for any OSGi-based application. P2 has enabled easy provisioning capabilities in WSO2 Carbon, thereby increasing the user-friendliness in building customized SOA products using the Carbon platform. Users can download the WSO2 Carbon framework or any other WSO2 product and extend them by simply installing various features. The WSO2 Feature Manager provides a convenient user interface to perform provisioning operations such as installing, uninstalling, updating features.
