1. Re: Minimalistic Core Distribution vs Java EE7 Full & Web Distribution what is the difference?
jmesnil May 28, 2014 5:03 AM (in response to jp-cr)Basically, the Java EE7 Web distribution contains the Java EE7 Web profile and all its related specifications (Servlets, JAX-RS, JPA, CDI, etc.)
The minimalistic core distribution is not bound to Java EE7 and provides the basis runtime of the application server (to manage it, deploy resources, etc.) and a Web server using Undertow.
Depending on your application, you could start from the core distribution and add the components you need (e.g. JAX-RS, CDI), or start directly from the Web distribution that provides them out-of-the-box.

jp-cr May 28, 2014 12:25 PM (in response to jmesnil)Thank you Jeff, i think i'll start with the minimalistic version because at this point I just need the web server.
I appreciate your help!

Core distribution comes with Undertow web server but without servlet container.
What you would need is "web" distribution, which is something we plan to do for 9.
