    Thinking about Jboss Web Server to use in our organization

    deepakdewangan

      Guys,

      Here is the scenario:

      Our webapps are simple webapps using springframework, hibernate google gwts, datasource etc. No ejbs at all. Not looking for any http session replication etc but we use ehCache for distributed caching

      Now, I am in pursuit of super lightweight high performant Java application server which would fit the bill above.

      Would like to use Jboss WebServer for above reason:

      1) Can It support mod-cluster ? I am really looking forward to using mod-cluster.

      2) It looks like i'd need to front these with apache/httpd since I want to use mod-jk/mod-cluster, any issue with this?

      3)How well does this Java webserver perform ?

      4)Does it scale good in Linux platforms ?

       

      Thanks

          Yep.  Mod_cluster httpd part works with Tomcat, JBoss Web, AS and with/without clustering the JAVA part.

          2) It looks like i'd need to front these with apache/httpd since I want to use mod-jk/mod-cluster, any issue with this?

          Should be no problem.

          You have no problems with that we have jbossnative to speed up IO and java scales well on Linux additionally when using httpd as front-end you could build different clusters for your applications.
