JBoss Application Server (I)
1 April 2008Talking about J2EE application servers, JBOSS is a popular choice. The reason is that JBOSS is open-source EJB solution with lot of impressive features that are missing in Weblogic, WebSphere, and the other big players.
Some of the interesting features provided by JBOSS are:
- enterprise-class security
- transaction support
- resource management
- load balancing
- clustering
- database connection pooling
- JavaMail support
JBOSS is a container for the following:
- Servlets
- JSPs
- EJB (Entity Beans, Session Beans, and Message Driven Beans)
- Web Services
JBoss Application Server ships with Apache Tomcat for the web tier, Hypersonic for embedded database services, and Hibernate for object-relational mapping.
In the next posts, I will write about setting JBOSS and the deployment process.
