All I can suggest is to read the javadoc, the proposal for 
#AwkwardStrongEncapsulation [1], and of course try out the EA builds [2].

The module system has built-in support for services. See Alex's session 
on "Modules and Services" from JavaOne 2016 [3] for more on that.

You can do this with dynamic configurations and the layer API. Alex's 
"Project Jigsaw: Under the Hook" session from JavaOne 2016 is the 
session to watch for more on that topic.
