Your Partner for Eclipse, OSGi and Mobile

Consulting

Here at EclipseSource, our consultants are Eclipse committers and contributors. We influence the future of Eclipse directly through leadership and participation in several Eclipse projects, such as RCP, RAP, EMF, Equinox OSGi, EPP and g-eclipse. As we write code that becomes part of the Eclipse codebase, we have a first-hand understanding of how things work.

We have extensive commercial Eclipse experience. We have unmatched hands-on Eclipse experience thanks to our early involvement in Eclipse, the development of our own Eclipse-based products (the Eclipse Rich Ajax Platform, EMFStore and Yoxos) and the numerous client projects we have delivered. Make this experience work for you.

We are part of the Eclipse network. EclipseSource is one of the most active companies within the Eclipse community. Our active involvement has given us the opportunity to build a strong professional network within the community, ensuring that we can collaborate with key people to benefit your project.

We are easy to work with. Being knowledgeable matters. Being easy to work with matters even more. We are dependable and forward-thinking and will integrate well with your team. We are looking forward to being a part of your development effort.

Example Project

We participated in an on-site mentoring project to assist in the development of a tool platform that integrated existing IC-engineering tools into Eclipse (C and Java-based, 6m LOC).  The EclipseSource team provided:

  • Guidance on use-case design and coding
  • Conceptualization of critical extension points
  • Training and coaching of team members
  • Guidance on software implementation

EclipseSource's consulting team can help you achieve your development goal in a variety of ways:

Workshops
We collaborate with you to define the content and pick the most suitable experts from our team. One or more EclipseSource experts will visit your office to answer your questions, give presentations on your topics of interest or coach your team.

Reviews & Quality Assessment
Whether you’re just starting your project or are in the middle of it, we can review your code and architecture to help you future-proof your application and avoid costly mistakes. We can provide advice and guidance on Eclipse best practices so that you can optimize memory consumption, improve the modularity of your code and reduce the usage of internal APIs. We combine our expertise with our quality assessment tools to optimize our analysis.

On-Site Development and Mentoring
Strengthen your team with one or more on-site Eclipse developers. Our consultants will become part of your team by:

  • Providing guidance on Eclipse-technologies
