Why GlassFish?

Few points to be considered while taking decision to adopt GlassFish Application Server.

  • GlassFish is an Open Source Application Server which implements the latest Java EE 5.0 specifications.
  • SUN is heavily supporting GlassFish Open Source Project.
  • GlassFish has very rich Administration Console like Weblogic and unlike JBoss.
  • After acquiring by Redhat, JBoss is not showing any momentum, whereas SUN is heavily supporting GlassFish Open Source Project, that is why GlassFish’s adoption is increasing as a best Open Source Application Server choice today.
  • GlassFish is very easy for developers to use, and increases the developer productivity when used in integration with Netbeans IDE.
