It's always good to 'see' how your Apache TomEE server is performing in a real world environment. A really great visual tool for this job, that actually ships with the latest Java Development Kit (JDK), is the Java VisualVM application. I will assume you already have a recent Oracle JDK and Apache TomEE installed as a Windows Service. Although this post will focus on the Windows Service platform, most of the information is relevant for other Java platforms. You'll find this tool in the C:/Program Files/Java//bin directory as 'jvisualvm.exe' - Just run it and have a play with the application…

Know JAX-RS, but haven't yet dug into Apache TomEE? Way too busy or impatient to read documentation? This repo is for you. https://github.com/tomitribe/tomee-jaxrs-starter-project The only thing better than a Maven archetype is a repo you can fork with everything already setup. Fork this repository on Github and you're good to go! The contents are incredibly small: ./LICENSE ./pom.xml ./README.md ./src/main/java/org/superbiz/Color.java ./src/main/java/org/superbiz/ColorService.java ./src/test/java/org/superbiz/ColorServiceTest.java ./src/test/resources/arquillian.xml The only mandatory actions are the following steps: $ git clone [email protected]:tomitribe/tomee-jaxrs-starter-project.git $ cd tomee-jaxrs-starter-project/ $ mvn clean install tomee:run That's it! With those simple steps above, you get the following: Easy to extend starter project setup…

If you use NetBeans or you've attended a conference or read Oracle's NetBeans blogs, you know who Geertjan Wielenga is. Geertjan has lived and breathed NetBeans for years, and I see him everywhere I go. I fly to Belgium for Devoxx? Geertjan. I show up in JavaOne? Geertjan. He's everywhere. For years it's been like this, if there is a conference that has anything to do with Java, he's there spreading the good word of NetBeans. Geertjan's done a great job of building a very loyal audience of Java developers who are passionate about NetBeans because he's focused on integration,…

At Tomitribe, much of our client work focuses on integration. For example, a customer might come to us and with an existing LDAP server that they want to use as a security realm or, in this case, a requirement to connect to a MongoDB database that contains users, credentials, and role definitions. The great thing about Tomcat and TomEE is that it's very easy to write custom components that can use any external resource to do just about anything. While there are likely several valid ways to use a MongoDB database as an authentication provider for Tomcat, in this blog…
