Virtual servers are a common concept to developers familiar with configuring web servers like Apache HTTP or Nginx. A virtual server represents a placeholder for a physical Payara Server instance to be "visualized" as multiple instances at once, allowing to server requests for multiple domain names. Detailed information on virtual servers can be found in the official documentation for Payara Server.

Before putting any application out for public access, it’s always worth testing that it works how you expect it to (and also how you don’t expect it to!). Effective testing of applications is something you can spend a week being taught, but for this blog I’ll just cover the basics of running JUnit and TestNG tests against Payara® Server & Micro using Arquillian.

There are 2 major changes happening in the Java EE world that Payara is heavily involved in: MicroProfile – an industry collaboration to define microservices APIs on top of a subset of Java EE; and EE4J – the migration of Java EE from the JCP to the Eclipse Foundation. Also, since Payara 5 has been released, it has brought new and exciting capabilities, and the community versions of Payara Server & Payara Micro have switched from 4 to 5.
In this webinar presented on the 1st of March 2018, Steve Millidge (Payara Founder) and Mike Croft (Payara Head of Support) give an update on MicroProfile and EE4J, explaining the initiatives’ roadmaps, aims and objectives, and show code samples on how to use MicroProfile with Payara Server. They explained the Payara Server 2018 Roadmap and what the switch from Payara Server 4 to 5 means for Payara users.

For a long time Payara, a derivative of GlassFish, could be used in Eclipse using the Oracle GlassFish Tools. With the release of Payara 5, a few problems prevented the plug-in from recognizing Payara 5, meaning Payara 5 couldn’t really be used in Eclipse. A new set of tools again makes it possible to use Payara 5 with Eclipse, along with other improvements.
