Dell and JBoss Technology

The no-license cost JBoss Application Server is, according to a recent survey, the most widely used Java application server on the market.^* A J2EE certified platform for developing and deploying enterprise Java applications, Web applications, and Portals, JBoss Application Server provides the full range of J2EE 1.4 features as well as extended enterprise services including clustering, caching, and persistence. 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 helps ensure that applications are developed, deployed, integrated, and managed in a consistent manner.
