Putting the “Micro” in Microservices with WildFly Swarm

Chris Tozzi

Do you like JavaEE apps, but wonder how to fit them into a microservices-centric workflow? WildFly Swarm is the answer. I know—“Java” and “microservices” are not words that seem to go together. Java is an old, relatively unsexy programming language. It’s a pretty useful one, but it was created long before the era of Continuous Delivery, containers and microservices. But that doesn’t mean you have to give up on Java if you want to take advantage of microservices. WildFly Swarm...

Using the operating system to authenticate users on Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) ?

Siddhartha De

Recently, I was searching for a solution to configure the security domain of Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform with the local operating system based user registry so that the application could directly authenticate its users with local operating system users. I understood that it would be difficult to implement a generic solution, as authentication mechanisms are strikingly different between Windows and Unix/Linux. After checking several blogs and forums, I decided to implement this using JPAM for Unix/Linux and Waffle...

Using Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio to Debug Java Applications in the Red Hat Container Development Kit

Andrew Block

In an earlier article, Debugging Java Applications using the Red Hat Container Development Kit, it was discussed how developer productivity could be improved through the use of remotely debugging containerized Java applications running in OpenShift and the Red Hat Container Development Kit. Not only does remote debugging provide real time insight into the operation and performance of an application, but reduces the cycle time a developer may face as they are working through a solution. Included in the discussion were...

Persistence vs. Durability in Messaging. Do you know the difference?

Mary Cochran

Messaging is a critical aspect of integrating systems, and while there are many different messaging platforms and infrastructures, a common request is for "zero loss of messages." From there, the terms "Persistence" and "Durability" often get thrown around, but what do those two things really mean? Persistence At a basic level, persistence means that when failure occurs during message processing, the message will still be there (where you found it the first time) to process again once the failure is...

Red Hat Keynote Mobile App

Kyle Buchanan

This year’s middleware keynote address at Red Hat Summit talked about microservices, the power of the pipeline, and how developers and devops can work together to release code to production at a much higher rate. The keynote also demonstrated how releases can be shipped so you can switch from the existing deployment to a new deployment (blue/green deployments), and demonstrated how to roll out a canary deployment to a subset of users to test out new features.

Connecting to a Remote database from a JWS/Tomcat application on OpenShift

Guna Vijayaratnam

One of the common requirements for Java based applications on OpenShift is to have these workloads connect back out to an enterprise database that resides outside of the OpenShift infrastructure. While OpenShift natively supports a variety of relational databases (including Postgres and MySQL) as Docker based deployments within the platform, connecting to an existing enterprise database infrastructure is preferred in many large organizations for a variety of reasons including: Inherent confidence in traditional databases due to in house experience around...

Debugging Java Applications using the Red Hat Container Development Kit

Andrew Block

Containerization technology is fundamentally changing the way applications are packaged and deployed. The ability to create a uniform runtime that can be deployed and scaled is revolutionizing how many organizations develop applications. Platforms such as OpenShift also provide additional benefits such as service orchestration through Kubernetes and a suite of tools for achieving continuous integration and continuous delivery of applications. However, even with all of these benefits, developers still need to be able to utilize the same patterns they have...
