Outline What is Apache Geronimo? Java Enterprise Edition Innovations in Geronimo Affecting the Industry Questions
What is Apache Geronimo?
Enterprise Application Server Apache Geronimo HTTP Files Databases RMI XMLRPC Etc… Enterprise Information Systems Applications Message Queues
Works with Apache HTTP Server Apache HTTP Apache Geronimo mod_perl mod_php Apache Java Protocol HTTP
Open Source, Apache Style Principles established by HTTP server project Open participation Meritocracy Apache Software License Publicly available source code Uniform development practices Tomcat, Struts, Axis, MyFaces, Ant, Maven…
Consumability Install = unzip Free, Apache Software License Works wherever Java works 20 MB memory 10 second startup Unneeded parts can be removed or replaced
Geronimo Kernel and GBeans Fundamentally, Geronimo is a component integration environment Geronimo Kernel Provides core system services Manages resources (Thread Pools, ClassLoaders, etc.) Component life-cycle, dependency management, etc. GBeans Simple Inversion of Control Framework Configuration and Dependency info injected at run time
Geronimo Kernel Dependency Management Lifecycle Control Thread Pools Core Services Lookup Proxy
Minimal Assembly Kernel Plus : Servlet Container Security Deployment Remote Method Invocation Small footprint
Full Assembly Minimal Assembly Plus Enterprise JavaBeans Message Broker System Database Administration Console Web Services Dojo CORBA
Java Enterprise Edition
Java EE is like a HUMVEE Java Virtual Machine Java Enterprise Edition (Geronimo)
Technology Compatibility Kit Java Specification Request 244 Test suite ensures compliance Licensed by Sun Ensures compatibility across platforms June 2005 - Geronimo 1.0 passes Java 1.4 TCK June 2007 - Geronimo 2.0 passes Java EE5 TCK
