The Eclipse EE4J top-level project reached a major milestone recently when the Eclipse Board of Directors approved the EE4J top-level project charter   Achieving this milestone now enables the EE4J project to "begin transitioning existing Java EE 8 technologies to the project and to define processes for evolving the platform."

NEW OPEN IOT TESTBED AND WHITE PAPER

The Eclipse IoT Working Group has released the second Open IoT Testbed to address performance management and monitoring of factory equipment used in the manufacturing industry.

Eclipse IoT member companies participating in the testbed include Bosch Software Innovations, CONTACT Software, Eurotech, fortiss GmbH, and InfluxData.

The Eclipse IoT Working Group has also released a white paper, Open Source Software for Industry 4.0, that documents the software challenges and requirements for successful Industry 4.0 implementations.
