JBoss Application Platform [Standard (for up to 32 CPUs) - 3-4 Unit up to 128 CPUs - 3 Year Linux]

JBoss Enterprise Application Platform is an integrated Java Enterprise Edition (EE) application and services hosting platform that extends the Java standard and forms the foundation of Java EE 5. The Application Platform is certified to run on multiple virtual machines and operating systems including Red Hat Enterprise Linux, other Linux distributions, Unix, and Windows and is compatible with industry leading databases. JBoss Enterprise Application Platform is integrated and performance tuned from the start for business critical production environments. By integrating Java EE and Web 2.0 technologies like Hibernate and Seam into the JBoss Application Server, JBoss Enterprise Application Platform is a complete solution for next generation enterprise Java applications.

JBoss Application Server: the most widely used Java application server on the market. A certified Java platform for developing and deploying enterprise applications, JBoss Application Server supports both traditional APIs and Java EE APIs and includes improved performance and scalability through buddy replication and fine grained replication. JBoss Application Server provides a complete Java platform by integrating Apache Tomcat as its web container along with capabilities for data caching, clustering, messaging, transactions, and an integrated web services stack that simplifiesdevelopment of web services. In addition to providing the full range of J2EE 1.4 services, JBoss Application Server includes extended support for Java EE 5 features such as: EJB3.0, Java Persistence API 1.0, Servlet 2.5, JSP 2.1, JSP/EL 1.0, JSTL 1.2, JSF 1.2, Javamail 1.4, JAF 1.1, SAAJ 1.3, JTA 1.1.

Innovation with stability:

• Leverage market leading technologies for building and hosting next generation Java applications and web services. Benefit from the latest open source innovations that have been integrated, tested & certified for enterprise class stability and are fully supported from the leaders in open source Java.

Improve developer productivity:

• Utilize integrated Web 2.0 technologies that work with the leading application server from the start. Remove configuration complexities and simplify Java development with a single, flexible application platform that combines the power of open source collaboration with enterprise class stability.

Enterprise class performance:

• Take advantage of integrated clustering and high availability features for superior application performance. Utilize a proven foundation for mission-critical applications with fail-over, load balancing, and distributed deployment features used to deploy large, scalable enterprise applications.

Extend your budget:

• Improve application investment returns and savings by leveraging an affordable middleware solution that includes everything needed for enterprise Java applications. Improve your company’s middleware total cost of ownership by reinvesting savings to improve collaboration and innovation in other technology areas.

Utilize open standards:

• Avoid vendor lock-in by deploying Java standards that are implemented in the open, giving you the the transparency to see exactly what’s occurring in the platform that you’re developing on.
