We wanted to let you know that we've decided to self-host our documentation due to the shutdown of legacy Gitbook. There are a few minor changes you'll want to know regarding how you access and read the Payara Platform Documentation.

At Payara Services, we have long been advocates of the benefits of using DevOps practices not only in the development of our products (like Payara Server & Payara Micro), but also in the core of our expert advice to our user base with our blog containing arguments for using DevOps practices, details of DevOps tools and new developments that benefit it.

This was my first time attending Oracle Code One, and by extension traveling to San Francisco.

As part of the Payara Enterprise Support services that we deliver to customers on a daily basis, giving expert advice and clarifying how the internals of the products of the Payara Platform work is one of the most common scenarios we encounter. Here's' a story about the advice we gave to one of our customers regarding the behavior of JDBC Connection Pools in Payara Server.

Last week, the Colombian chapter of the Latin American JConf Conferences was held in the beautiful city of Medellin, Antioquia. There were multiple Java related talks across the 5th and 6th of July in two tracks:

One of the biggest challenges when developing applications for the web is to understand how they need to be fine-tuned when releasing them into a production environment. This is no exception for Java Enterprise applications deployed on a Payara Server installation. 

Running a Payara Server setup is simple: download the current distribution suited for your needs (full, web); head to the /bin folder and start the default domain (domain1)! However, keep in mind that this default domain is tailored for development purposes (a trait inherited from GlassFish Server Open Source). When developing a web application, it’s better to quickly code features, deploy them quickly, test it, un-deploy (or redeploy) it and continue with the next set of features until a stable state is reached. 

Nowadays, the concept of microservices is more than a simple novelty. With the advent of DevOps and the boom of container technologies and deployment automation tools, microservices are changing the way developers structure their applications. With this article, our intention is to illustrate that microservices are a valid option for Java/Jakarta EE developers and how Payara Micro is a robust platform to reach that goal. 

Starting this year, customers that come on board with our support services also have access to commercial OpenJDK support included, thanks to the partnership between Payara Services and Azul Systems' Enterprise Support! If you are interested in Payara Enterprise or our Migration & Project Support but are hesitating and have some doubts about what value this service brings to your organization and environment, this article may help dispel them and give you much needed decision-making clarity.

今日、マイクロサービスのコンセプトは単に新しいだけではなくなっています。DevOpsの登場、コンテナ技術ブーム、デプロイ自動化ツールによって、マイクロサービスは開発者が手掛けるアプリケーションの構造を変えつつあります。マイクロサービスはJava EE開発者にとっていかにして有効な選択肢となり得るのか、そしてPayara Microとそれが提供する完璧なプラットフォームによってどのようなメリットが得られるのかについてみてゆきましょう。
