GlassFish - World's first Java EE 7 Application Server


  • GlassFish v2 will have one binary that contains clustering capabilities.
  • Initially there may be 2 binaries to start with and will be merged soon after. Goal is to merge only is the difference in size is not more than 10 MB.
  • By default, clustering features will be disabled
  • You will be able to select non-clustering or clustering mode when you install. (If possible, after installation also)
  • It will contain everything in Sun's EE version except for the HADB. A light weight in-memory replication may be included (based on when it comes in)
  • Source for all this will be available on GF cvs
  • There will be documentation and Load Balancer plugin (that can be downloaded separately) to configure a load balancer.
  • There will be documentation to install, configure node-agents, instances, clusters, etc.

Unresolved issues:

  • When can users switch between non-clustering to clustering mode? during installation or after also?

GlassFish Workspace Meeting Minutes:

27 July 2006:

SDK Meeting Attendees:

  • Srikanth, Dhiru, Kedar, Pankaj, Snjezana, Lidia, Dinesh

Agenda:

  • redcvs CVS status for EE modules
  • 9.1 workspace : moving EE modules on java.net with few exceptions in admin-ee, appserv-core-ee
  • Any packager,installer changes for 9.1

Minutes:

  • Moving 8 EE modules to java.net repository from redcvs, appserv-core-ee, admin-ee will have some code on redcvs as that's not open source code for HADB, jes-mf, cms dependencies
  • Kedar mentioned about cleaning up submodules and have all source code from top-level modules under src/java with different packages instead of different submodules.
  • We need to have the workspace ready for pushing out to java.net by next week, so we can do submodules refactoring later on once we push sources out on java.net.
  • No admingui, cli, installer-packager changes for milestone 1
  • How to preserve CVS history check with Raja for RCS,v files.
  • Have 64-bit binaries separate, not for milestone 1 but later.
