Zato is an integration platform and backend application server which means that, during most of their projects, developers using Zato are interested in a few specific matters.
The platform concentrates on answering these key, everyday questions that Python backend developers routinely ask:
Apache Tomcat is an open-source application server maintained by the Apache community. It is one of the most popular solutions for hosting Java applications due to its ease of use and lightweight yet versatile functionality. However, if you run the projects based on Jakarta EE 8 (or higher), you may be interested to use the TomEE server with built-in required enterprise technology that isn’t found in Tomcat.
Due to the extreme popularity of these stacks globally and within Jelastic PaaS in particular, we’ve decided to share the tips on how to install automatically clustered Tomcat and TomEE servers to get a highly available solution that can efficiently serve a large number of users, process high traffic, and be reliable.
The testing that is done to verify the interface functionality is called Interface testing. It is also defined as a software testing type that verifies whether the communication between two different software systems is done correctly.
In software development one often finds themselves investigating issues. Depending on the type of the application, various sources of informations can be available:
In an ideal world, the exact inputs that caused an issue and the code that failed would be immediately available. In a typical case though, it can take hours of digging through logs and code to understand what happened. Would it not be nice to avoid that?
In the previous article in this series introduced our thoughts on setting up a mission-critical open source Java platform using high availability in our Web layer. In this article we’ll continue by installing WildFly and configure our platforms topology.
Note: the terminology in this article, where possible, has been adjusted from the traditional master / slave descriptions to master / subordinate. Some of the images displayed have not yet been updated and show the older terminology.
Currently the Java platform is one of the most consolidated in the world, much of this is due to platform’s ability to support other languages such as Kotlin, Groovy and Scala, etc. Thousands of web and mobile applications are developed using the platform as a base. The Java platform has changed a lot in recent years and probably will keep evolving.
In parallel with these changes, we see the evolution application servers, that increasingly offer highly complex features such as load balancing components, smart asynchronous messaging, transaction control and many other technologies facilitating application development and standardization. They also provide a stable and scalable infrastructure for mission critical applications. One of the biggest challenges for application servers is to couple highly complex services, making them stable and flexible.
