Wildfly, formerly known as the JBoss Application Server, is a free open-source application server that provides an environment in which applications can run. Wildfly is written in Java and was originally authored by JBoss but is now actively maintained by Red Hat. Wildfly implements the Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) specification and version 10 supports Java 8. Because Wilfly is written in Java, it can run on multiple platforms.
Wildfly offers several noteworthy features:
- Java Server Pages (JSPs)/Java Servlets
- Clustering
- Load Balancing
- Enterprise Java Beans
- Failover
- Java Message Service (JMS) integration,
- Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI),
- Java Transaction API (JTA),
- Java Authorization Contract for Containers, (JACC) and JavaMail
- Caching
- ActiveMQ as JMS Broker
- Server Side JavaScript
- Migration Assistance from Older Systems
- Automatic Pool Sizing
The main benefit of Wildfly over other application servers is that Wilfly provides a full Java Enterprise Edition (JEE) stack, including Enterprise JavaBeans and many other technologies used when building an enterprise level Java application. The administrative console is also intuitive and easy to use.
