The Apache Geronimo project, an open source alternatives to create runtimes, has announced the release of v2.1. This release represents the latest open source Java Enterprise Edition 5.0 application server from the Apache Geronimo project, and continues the evolution of the Apache Geronimo server by adding new features and capabilities to a certified Java Enterprise Edition 5.0 suitable for everything from a development environment to enterprise-level deployments.
Various changes in this release includes custom server assembly capabilities, a more flexible Administration Console, a command-line processing environment, enhanced clustering support for web applications and a server monitoring plugin.
Apache Geronimo v2.1 has passed the Sun Microsystems’s JEE5 certification test suite. Downloads are provided for both Windows and Unix including Linux, Mac OS X operating systems. Each Geronimo package includes one of two possible Web containers, Tomcat or Jetty. They both are fully supported in Geronimo.
Apache Tomcat is the servlet container that is used in the official Reference Implementation for the Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages technologies. The Java Servlet and JavaServer Pages specifications are developed by Sun under the Java Community Process.
Jetty is an open-source, standards-based, full-featured web server implemented entirely in Java. It is released under the Apache 2.0 license and is therefore free for commercial use and distribution.
