Welcome to OpenEJB!OpenEJB is an open source, modular, configurable, and extendable EJB Container System and EJB Server. We are building the hottest EJB container system in the world! Why? Because OpenEJB is whatever you want it to be. The design is radically different than anything else available today. Everything in OpenEJB is pluggable, even OpenEJB itself. If you've got the guts to think differently, and the brains to make a difference, then we dare you to join us. We double dog dare you! EJB ServerOpenEJB comes with fast, lightweight EJB Servers for both Local and Remote access. That's right, deploy your EJBs into the container system, then just start the Remote EJB Server from the command line! Or, put OpenEJB in your class path and use it as an embedded library through the Local EJB Server. EJB Container SystemAs a container system, OpenEJB works like a big plug-in for middleware servers like Web servers, CORBA servers, and application servers. By plugging in OpenEJB these servers obtain instant EJB compliance for hosting Enterprise JavaBeans! OpenEJB is designed for speed and low resource consumption making it a very desirable alternative for middleware providers who want EJB 1.1 compatibility. OpenEJB is already shipping in platforms like Apple Computer's WebObjects, Exolab's OpenCCM, and OpenORB. OpenEJB is targeted for other middleware platforms including another commercial application server called n3 , the Apache Tomcat server, and Avalon Phoenix. Who is working on OpenEJB ?OpenEJB is the brainchild of Richard Monson-Haefel and David Blevins. Richard is author of Enterprise JavaBeans, 3rd Edition (O'Reilly 2001) and co-author of Java Message Service (O'Reilly 2000).
David Blevins is author of 'Understanding J2EE' a forthcoming Addison-Wesley book on the Java 2 Enterprise Edition,
and contributing author to the book 'Component-Based Software Engineering' (Addison-Wesley 2001). |
