/**
 * In Java EE environment, each {@link BeanDeploymentArchive} should provide a description of the Java EE module it belongs to (WAR, RAR, etc.). This applies to
 * physical bean archives deployed within the given module and also to logical bean archives that belong to the module. Bean archives that are not part of a
 * Java EE module (e.g. built-in server libraries) are not required to have a {@link EEModuleDescriptor} service registered.
 *
 * 
 * {@link EEModuleDescriptor} is a per-BDA service.
 * 
 *
 * 
 * It is recommended to share an immutable {@link EEModuleDescriptor} instance for all bean deployment archives of the same Java EE module. However, each bean
 * deployment archive may register its own {@link EEModuleDescriptor} instance. In this case, all descriptors representing a given EE module must use the same
 * id and type.
