| <div id="introText"> |
| <p> |
| Eclipse Gemini Blueprint is the reference implementation for the <a href="http://www.osgi.org">OSGi |
| Alliance</a> Blueprint Service (chapter 121 of the OSGi 4.2 Compendium Specification). |

| Gemini Blueprint makes it easy to build Java applications that run in an OSGi framework. By using Gemini |
| Blueprint, applications benefit from using a better separation of modules, the ability to dynamically add, |
| remove, and update modules in a running system, the ability to deploy multiple versions of a module |
| simultaneously (and have clients automatically bind to the appropriate one), and a dynamic service model. |

| Gemini users may also be interested in Eclipse <a href="https://www.eclipse.org/virgo/">Virgo</a>, an open |
| source, completely modular, OSGi-based Java application server. Its documentation is considered a supplement to |
| Gemini Blueprint as it explains in detail, how OSGi can be used in various development and production scenarios. |
