OSS/J Self-Certified Products

This section lists products that have been OSS/J self-certified and describes what you need to do to certify your products. It also lists non certified components or products that use or plan to use OSS/J.

The OSS/J product self-certification process is open and free of charge. It relies on self-testing and self-certification by member companies.

The self-certification process is simple. The owner of the product runs the tests or answer a questionnaire to certify that the product meets the technical requirements for compatibility with a specific OSS/J API specification, publishes technical evidence in support of this, and assumes responsibility for the claim of compliance.

In accordance with the Java Community Process, each OSS/J API consists of a Specification, a Reference Implementation (RI), and a Technology Compatibility Kit (TCK) for each of the three integration profiles that are or will be available for OSS/J APIs:

  • Tightly coupled integration with Java/JVT profile (Spec, RI, TCK)
  • Loosely coupled integration with XML/JMS profile (Spec, RI, TCK)
  • Cross operational boundaries integration with Web Services (Spec, RI, TCK)
