For higher availability and improved Clustering of the new WildFly Application Server 10, which is included in the new Beta Version of the JBoss Application platform.
Red hat introduces the beta version of Red hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP) 7. The WildFly Application Server 10 is one of the most important innovations in the new Version. The Application Server should provide, especially for higher availability and improved Clustering.
So, WildFly 10 allows you to install any application as a “singing Elton Deployment”. Thus, applications can also be installed in a Cluster, only on a specific Node. If this Node fails, then the application will automatically start on another node. For the management of these Nodes Red hat will provide you with a new Subsystem, such as the manufacturer explains in a Blog.
In addition, JBoss EAP 7 brings the new Beta-Version Support for Java EE 7 and Java SE 8. In addition, the Version optimizes the space consumption of containers, and supports the Container, and Cloud environments such as OpenShift by Red hat. As a Web-Server is now integrated Undertow, the HTTP/2, HTTP, Upgrade, and WebSockets support. Another example is the Batch Tooling, Creating it allows developers Batch to Monitor Jobs easier to manage.
A new Messaging Subsystem, based on the Unified Messaging technology, Apache ActiveMQ Artemis will be the transition from older versions easier. The new Features allows the exchange of Messages between EAP 6 and EAP 7.
Also new is the Management Console, the it is a lot of management tasks, simplify, as of Red hat. With a new history was also optimized the Command Line Interface (CLI) so that it can be used without running the Server. So administrators configuration and Logging can be found in information better and EAP Server offline to manage. This administrative tasks on the JBoss EAP 7 servers with minimal interruptions carried out.
