Sun Microsystems, Inc. and the GlassFish community chose the AJAXWorld stage in New York to announce the beta release of the GlassFish V2, the next major version of the open source Java EE 5 application server and the release of the Sun Web Developer Pack, a toolkit designed for simplifying and enabling advanced rich Internet applications for the Java platform. These releases help enterprises build and deploy SOA and Web 2.0 applications and services leveraging next generation web technologies such as Ajax, Scripting and REST that simplifies development and deployment of scalable, interactive applications.
The GlassFish V2 Beta adds all the enterprise features from Sun's Java System Application Server Enterprise Edition, such as clustering, administration, Web Services Interoperability Technology (WSIT) and load balancing to support highly scalable, volume enterprise deployments for SOA and Web 2.0 applications. A few of these features include:
- WSIT integration - allowing applications to interoperate between Web services hosted on Java and Windows environments.
- Java Business Integration (JBI) - providing native SOA support.
- NetBeans IDE integration - enabling developers to deploy SOA applications by designing BPEL business processes as well as building and testing composite applications with the NetBeans Enterprise Pack.
The GlassFish V2 Beta is available now via download.
"The flexibility of open source technologies, along with the unmatched security, stability, ease-of management and scalability of Solaris 10 and the GlassFish application server will enable us to grow our business and our community to meet the growing demand," said Cyril Bouteille, chief technology officer, Peerflix, Inc.
"The release of GlassFish V2 Beta further demonstrates Sun's commitment and leading contributions to the open source community," said Karen Tegan Padir, vice president, Enterprise Java Platforms, Sun. "GlassFish continues to proffer widely adopted open source based solutions that provide developers with industry leading enterprise scalability and ease of deployment on Web 2.0 and SOA applications."
The Sun Web Developer Pack simplifies access to multiple open source technologies for creating rich Internet-based applications, REST Web services and RSS feeds more rapidly. The availability of the Web 2.0 toolkit reinforces Sun's commitment to provide the developer community with next-generation Java technologies such as Project jMaki, Project Phobos, Dynamic Faces, WADL, ROME, and Atom.
