Time: Thursday 10:45 - 11:15 Location: To be announced
Abstract: Geronimo is an open source J2EE server project by the Apache Software Foundation which was the basis for another open source application server developed by the US based company called Gluecode. IBM acquired this company in 2005 and based on Gluecode's efforts has built its first free, open source application server, WAS-CE - IBM WebSphere Application Server Community Edition, Version 1.0
This session will explain the main features of WAS-CE, the motivation of IBM to provide such a free, open source application server in addition to its current range of WebSphere application servers, future plans for WAS-CE and how this fits into IBM's open source strategy.
