JBoss in Action is the first book to focus on teaching readers in
detail how to use the JBoss application server. Unlike other titles
about JBoss, the authors of JBoss in Action go deeper into the
advanced features and configuration of the server. In particular, it
focuses on enterprise-class topics, such as high availability, security,
and performance.
This book walks readers through the JBoss 5 Application Server from
installation to configuration to production development. It shows how to
configure the server's various component containers such as the JBoss
Web Server, the EJB 3 server, and JBoss Messaging. It also provides
detailed insight into configuring the various component services such as
security, performance, and clustering. Beyond coverage of the core
application server, the book also teaches how to use some of the hot
technologies that run on top of the application server, such as Jboss
Seam and JBoss Portal.
Purchase of the print book comes with an offer of a free PDF, ePub, and
Kindle eBook from Manning. Also available is all code from the book.
The authors, both seasoned professional experts at developing and
administering JBoss, provide meaningful explanations and background on
many topics which they tie in with their own practical, real-world
advice from their collective experience. These uniquely comprehensive
explanations and the wide coverage provided in this book surpass any
other content currently available in any other book, article, or
documentation on the subject.
