IBM and Avada Software announced a new original equipment
manufacturer (OEM) agreement to join forces to capture a larger piece of the
growing open source application server market. Under the agreement, Avada
Software will deliver and support WebSphere Application Server Community
Edition (WAS CE) as part of its messaging management solutions. IBM is also
announcing that Nexxar Group Inc., a money transfer company, is using WAS CE to
stay compliant with new money transfers laws and regulations in the U.S. and
Europe.
Nexxar Group, a money transfer company, is the latest
IBM customer to use WAS CE to provide the right balance of simplicity,
functionality and total cost of ownership. Nexxar utilizes a state-of-the-art
technology platform and operates worldwide service hubs to provide money
transfer, bill pay, check cashing and money order services for individuals as
well as international transaction processing services for global financial
institutions.
WAS CE Version 2.0, which was announced last year, helps
developers reduce the complexity of application development by pre-integrating
the most common services for building applications. WAS CE 2.0 allows
customers, partners and developers to rapidly develop and deploy applications
using new Java EE 5 standards.

Rarely do I get to have as much fun as this morning. I decided to download and install the new IBM WebSphere Application Server Community Edition V2.0.0.1 to one of our blade servers. The install was flawless and the instructions were exceptional. Before starting the server and deploying the XAware 5.0 WAR, I updated the startup.bat file with my JRE_HOME=%JRE_5_HOME% and added the XAWARE_HOME environment variable to the file, geronimo.bat. (set JAVA_OPTS=%JAVA_OPTS% "-Dxaware.home=%XAWARE_HOME%"). I started the server, started the administrative console, and deployed the XAware 5.0 WAR on the IBM WebSphere Application Server Community Edition. Using a standalone XAware Designer and the Package Assembly Tool, I deployed a XAR package to the CE Server and tested the service. Excellent! The application server was up and running the XAware 5.0 asset in less than two hours. The application server is very light-weight, but feature rich. There were no issues with deploying the XAware 5.0 application. This was easy to verify using the test tab from the Package Assembly Tool. I really like the functionality allowing administration of the server using the Eclipse framework. I would say nice! Good work IBM! We love those Open Source Projects. Jeff Peters |
