Spring Data MongoDB in OSGi Blueprint

Spring Data is yet another extremely useful Spring subproject that is so tightly coupled with the Spring-specific container features, that it has become very hard to deploy it in Blueprint.

The alternative to an adaptation to Blueprint is (once again) mixing Spring DM and Blueprint bundles and importing Spring DM services into Blueprint contexts.

AOP Proxies in OSGi Blueprint

Traditionally Spring has excellent support for AOP features. One of the most common approaches for adding aspects to a Spring bean is the org.springframework.aop.framework.ProxyFactoryBean class. However this class does not work equally well in a Blueprint container.
