ProSyst

ProSyst Software GmbH was founded in Cologne in 1997 as a company specializing in Java software and middleware. ProSyst's first commercial application was a J2EE application server. In 2000, the company sold this server technology and has since focused completely on OSGi.

In 1999 ProSyst was among the first companies to join the OSGi Alliance and since then has made important contributions to the development of each release of OSGi specifications (Release 1–4). Besides IBM, Nokia, NTT, Siemens, Oracle Corporation, Samsung, Motorola and Telcordia ProSyst is a member of the OSGi Alliance board of directors. Additionally, members of ProSyst’s staff serve in positions such as "vice-president marketing", "requirement chair" and chair of the "end-to-end solution group" of the OSGi Alliance.

In recent years ProSyst set its focus exclusively on the development of OSGi related software, such as frameworks, bundles, a Remote Management System and OSGi tools for developers. ProSyst’s OSGi solutions are used by mobile phone manufacturers, network equipment providers (e.g. in set top boxes and DSL-routers), white goods manufacturers, car manufacturers, and in the eHealth market.

ProSyst employs more than 120 Java and OSGi experts and offers OSGi related training, support (SLAs), technical consulting and development services.

As a member, prosyst contributes to OSGi, Eclipse, Java Community Process, Nokia Forum Pro and the [http://www.connectedvehicle.org CVTA Connected Vehicle Trade Association] .
