Moving Beyond GlassFish – Here’s Why and How

Jakarta EE

If you’re still managing Java applications on GlassFish middleware, you might be hitting some roadblocks, such as difficulties with automation, lack of integrated monitoring and official support and limited abilities with modern tools. However, there are ways to modernize your current applications. Let’s have a look how. 

While GlassFish Server was once the go-to for enterprise Java applications, since Oracle stopped its support and the application server became an open-source project under Eclipse Foundation, its development has been limited, as technology advances and DevOps practices have evolved considerably.

As these innovations, enterprise Java and Jakarta EE continue to advance, the challenges associated with using GlassFish due to lack of official support, outdated monitoring and limited automation, are only likely to grow. As a result, it will only be harder for development teams to deliver the stability, security, regulatory compliance and scalability that modern applications and businesses demand.

Try This shows how you can easily move to a strategic, futureproof alternative to GlassFish that keeps pace with today’s enterprise requirements, helping your team and your applications thrive with your enterprise Java while providing the tools to embrace the future-oriented Jakarta EE.
