| Session Title: |
Dynamic Languages Powered by GlassFish™ Application Server v3 |
| Session Abstract: |
Traditionally, a Java™ Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE project) application server is meant to run only Java technology-based applications, but now the support for dynamic languages running on the JVM™ machine means new possibilities for running applications on Java EE platform servers. Developers don't need to be aware of Java EE platform-specific technologies unless they want to leverage Java EE platform features. The GlassFish™ application server v3, via its extensibility mechanism, makes this best-of-both-worlds approach a reality. Among the topics in this session: • Dynamic language support overview - Ruby on Rack : Rails, Merb, Sinatra, Campsite.... - Python and Django - Groovy on Grails *bull; How it works - Architecture - Grizzly wired DL frameworks *bull; Jython - Django support - WSGI and Grizzly • Groovy on Grails - Grails support out of the box - Better Grails support • JRuby - Rack specification: any framework support possible - Default support of Rails, Merb, Sinatra - Accessing Java EE platform features (database connection pool, Java Message Service [JMS], Enterprise JavaBeans™ (EJB™) technology) - GlassFish gem vs. GlassFish v3 application server (light weight vs. flexibility) • Administration/monitoring • Demo: Rails/Merb application development with GlassFish gem application server • Demo: Django on GlassFish application server v3 |
