Red Hat JBoss EAP

Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform is a subscription based, open - source platform for building, deploying and hosting Java applications and services. We are using it as application server for 4 of our applications. We have total 25 Virtual Machines running JBoss EAP. We have configured domain controller, host controller and singleton Jboss instances. We are currently using it entirely on-premise but we have future plans to move it to cloud or at least hybrid cloud. The deployment is easy, resulting in lower cost and speedier deliveries.

JBoss deployment and configuration is easy and fast. This leads to lower cost and faster deliveries.
Jboss gives you lot of flexibility around performance tuning options to better suite your application needs.
It is modular and cloud ready. This can be installed on-premise and cloud with equal ease.
I specifically love it's integration with mod_cluster. It is a smart httpd based load balancing component that listens to incoming requests on web server using httpd and then intelligently routes the request to Jboss hosts.

Jboss CLI is a great tool but we had trouble using it to get values that are displayed on Jboss GUI. It also has limitations parsing the applications.xml files and we had to use a mix of jboss-cli and linux bash commands to automate certain application administrative tasks.
JBoss doesn't really provides performance tuning recommendations. It would have been nice if it could learn from the current demand vs current settings for things like connection pool, server configurations, garbage collection etc.

Jboss EAP is easy to deploy and configure. This lead to lower cost and faster delivery.
Even though we have large number of machines running JBoss, we have only two Jboss Administrators. It doesn't requires too much administration and maintenance on daily basis and reduces number of administrators required for large implementations.

My team had a little tough time understanding how to leverage JBoss for clustering. We would like to train them on that and also on performance tuning which plays key in JBoss environment since out of box settings are mostly not best for your application needs.

Development Coordinator, Advancement Services

We are currently using Red Hat JBoss EAP for the application server layer. It is mainly used by the Java developers in the company.

It is easy to install.
Easy scalability.
Makes Java applications run fast.

Usability is not that great.
User interface could be improved.

Red Hat JBoss provisioning is very fast and simple, so it speeds up projects.

Use EAP for rapid on-demand environmental scaling of our JAVA applications. This application provides excellent security and management features while allowing for scaling at a moments notice. This is the best middleware option that I know of. Great software for building and deploying HTML 5 applications that have high availability and demand needs

Reduces DevOps resource requirements
Allows for Rapid Scalability
Enables super fast java applications

Project Manager

We currently use it as our application server for our Web application across the whole organization. It is our current web container to deploy our application.

Easy configuration and setup to deploy multiple web applications.
Easy automated deployments.
Supports the latest standards for Web Development.

It's a bit slow to deploy once started.
It's not as lightweight as say Tomcat.

We have multiple instances of the App Server which is a bit costly because we use multiple servers to run.

We develop and deploy application to JBoss EAP 6.
