Publisher review:JBoss Application Server (JBoss AS) is the market-leading, open source Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EETM) application server, delivering a high-performance, enterprise-class platform for developing and deploying e-business applications. JBoss Application Server (JBoss AS) is the market-leading, open source Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EETM) application server, delivering a high-performance, enterprise-class platform for developing and deploying e-business applications.
JBoss AS not only delivers the performance and reliability expected from an industrial strength application platform, it enables customers to scale technically and economically as well. With its revolutionary service-oriented architecture (SOA), JBoss AS ensures that applications are developed, deployed, integrated, and managed in a consistent manner.
JBoss AS is widely known for its power and simplicity, and improves upon this with the introduction of the dramatically simplified Enterprise Java Bean (EJB) 3.0 programming model.
This new version of the EJB standard simplifies the Enterprise Java programming model by exposing the power of Java Enterprise Edition platform services to simple Java objects through standard Java annotations.
