Have you ever been asked “What is an application server?” by a member of your senior management team, and struggled to explain the application server model? We know how you feel. It’s tough to explain complex software concepts to those who can be easily overwhelmed by even the jargon we’d otherwise use to explain them.
In this blog post, we explore what an application server is, how it’s different from other kinds of servers, its advantages and disadvantages, and which application server is best for your application infrastructure. And, you won’t need to have an Engineering degree and 6 years’ experience on a software development team to understand it.

EU Cyber Resilience Act: What are its Essential Requirements for Software Products?

The EU’s Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) 2024 lays down a “legal framework for essential cybersecurity requirements for placing products with digital elements on the Union market” (CRA, 1). These requirements cover “products with digital elements”. The goal is to establish conditions for developing secure software. Software venders must take security seriously thought the entire SDLC. Consequently, the intention is that “hardware and software products are placed on the market with fewer vulnerabilities and that manufacturers take security seriously throughout a product’s lifecycle” (CRA, 2).
This blog post will answer some basic questions, based on our understanding of the Act. What is the new Cyber Resilience Act in the EU? What is the key focus of the Cyber Resilience Act and who does it affect? When will the EU Cyber Resilience Act come into force? How do software venders comply with its requirements? Are there obligations for other parties too? And does Payara help its customers to comply with their requirements under the Act?

Creating scalable and flexible APIs is essential for today's web applications. When it comes to RESTful APIs in enterprise Java/Jakarta EE software development, one concept that plays a crucial role in driving adaptability, discoverability and evolvability is Hypermedia as the Engine of Application State (HATEOAS). In effect, the HATEOAS principle can help developers to significantly enhance their API designs, making them more powerful and futureproof.
Our latest guide on HATEOAS is specifically designed for developers familiar with RESTful API development using Jakarta REST (formerly known as JAX-RS). In this blog post, we’ll explore the key takeaways from the guide and show you how mastering HATEOAS can transform the way you build and evolve your APIs.
