JBoss Web 2.1.2.GA Released
Good news for anyone contemplating replacing their apache web server infrastructure with a common web and application server platform: JBoss Web 2.1.2 GA has been released. This version contains mostly bug fixes but there is some new stuff in the valve that provides mod_rewrite functionality in JBoss Web. The Release Notes do not detail what these changes are so a follow-up article should be forth-coming.
Although I do love my apache web servers, part of me is intrigued with the idea of using jboss web in my dmz—primarily for consolidating support. We already use jboss and tomcat as containers and app servers—why not use jboss web at the web tier as well?
I'm very interested in hearing whether any of you out there are using jboss web as your front-end web servers. Please drop me a comment and let me know how it is working out for you.
