Hi [~deepak] , I think this effort is related to both
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-3500 and
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-12308 .
I've discussed some time ago about splitting OFBIz into artifacts (maybe 1 jar
per component) and then assemble OFBiz from those components like a regular
multi-jar java app.
If we manage to do that, your goals should be fulfilled, even without moving
the applications outside the framework.
A starting point could be this PR:
[https://github.com/apache/ofbiz-framework/pull/837] .

> Key: OFBIZ-13305
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OFBIZ-13305
> Project: OFBiz
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: ALL APPLICATIONS
> Affects Versions: Upcoming Branch
> Reporter: Deepak Dixit
> Assignee: Deepak Dixit
> Priority: Minor
>
> Propose restructuring the OFBiz architecture to move applications out of the
> main OFBiz framework — similar to how plugins are currently managed.
> This change aims to:
> * Enable developers to build custom ERP solutions without including default
> applications and their 750+ database tables.
> * Provide a lighter and more modular foundation for building domain-specific
> or micro-service based solutions.
> * Increase OFBiz adoption and flexibility by allowing users to leverage the
> framework purely as an enterprise-grade development platform.
> Benefits:
> * Improved modularity and maintainability.
> * Simplified upgrade and customization process.
> * Enhanced usability for building microservices and custom ERP
> implementations.
