Background: I'm a intermediate level .NET dev (familiar with .NET MVC, WebAPI, WebForms, various IoC/DI containers, and .NET solution structure. Recently I changed jobs to a Java shop. I'll primarily be doing front-end work, and my new team knows I'm a Java noob...but I'd still like to understand what's happening on the server. I'm comfortable with the language, just not with the tooling, solution structure or application life-cycle management...

The biggest hurdle right now is OSGi. What does OSGi do in the context of a web application? At first (probably due to the use of the word 'container') I thought it was an inversion of control container... but that doesn't seem to be the case. Can somebody give me a .NET equivalent (if there is one) or barring that, a high level explanation how it fits in with deployment and application life cycle?

Thanks Java wizards!

In the context of web applications, OSGi doesn't directly map to a specific .NET technology, but you can think of it as having some similarities to .NET Core's modular architecture.
