Being productive gives developers a sense of satisfaction and fulfillment. That's why increasing developer productivity is always our priority and we are consistently working towards improving the Payara Platform developer tools and the developer experience.

In this blog, we will show you how to configure a Project in the Apache NetBeans IDE to enable Auto Deploy and Hot Deploy mode.

The Auto Deploy and Hot Deploy mode are helpful for developers to run and test an application immediately after making changes to its sources without restarting the Server or manual redeployment to maximize your productivity where Auto Deploy is the feature of Apache NetBeans IDE and Hot Deploy is the feature of Payara Server. Hot Deploy mode is currently only supported in Apache NetBeans IDE as an experimental feature.

In the previous blog of this series, we learned different ways to troubleshoot Java EE application. This blog will continue to focus on different ways and techniques to catch potential issues in the early stages and how to find the root cause of application performance issues.

In the previous blog of this series, we learned about 5 production features of the Payara Server 5. This blog will continue to introduce 5 more production features of Payara Server 5 that you might not know about - but should.

In the previous guide, we’ve seen how we can configure the Payara Platform to connect to a database and use the datasource from an application. This guide walks you through the process of building an application to store and retrieve data from the database.

Introduction

OpenID Connect is a security mechanism for an application to contact an identity service, verify the identity of the End-User based, and obtain End-User information using REST API's in a secure way.

This debugging guide will help you to diagnose and detect the cause of errors in your application by debugging Payara Server or Payara Micro.

Recently Gaurav Gupta (Principal Developer at Payara) made this presentation at the Great Indian Developer Summit in Bangalore.
