When creating a Java EE application it is important to deploy and test it on a server that is as close to the target production environment as possible. If you use Maven in your project, it is possible to do so using the Cargo plugin, which allows you to deploy an application to an instance of...
Just recently, I have had to admit being wrong. Very wrong. Way back at the start of October, I was feeling the familiar sensation of panic and dread that only happens right before I need to give a presentation that includes a demo! In the end, there were major...
Back in May, we announced the 172 release of Payara Server and mentioned a preview of our Maven plugin for Payara Micro, available on GitHub. Since then, we have released the plugin to Maven Central so, to illustrate it's use, I'll be revisiting my earlier blog on another feature of Payara Micro...
Hibernate is the object/relational mapping tool that handles mapping of Java classes to relational tables and Java types to SQL data type. It’s a well-known framework in the Enterprise Java eco-system since it’s being actively developed for the last 16 years.

In this blog, which follows on from the introduction to Cloud Connectors in Payara Micro, we'll guide you through the process of setting up Payara Micro as a Kafka Client, which can produce and consume data from Apache Kafka.
When testing an app to be run on Payara Server, it can be extremely useful to be able to test your app continuously in your IDE (after all, that’s what it’s there for). If you're using NetBeans this is made very easy. Follow the steps in this blog to setup the Payara Server in NetBeans for...
As a follow up to our 'Getting Started with Payara Micro Demo', we have another introductory video for you, this time demonstrating the Payara Micro API, using NetBeans and Maven.
Payara Micro allows running web applications in a self-contained and easy way. Since the release of Payara Server 162, there is a simple way to generate an “Uber” JAR that bundles the contents of a WAR file and the classes and resources that compose Payara Micro!
Payara Micro 162 can now deploy your artifacts stored in Maven repositories simply by providing the GAV coordinates. This should provide another option for continuous delivery scripts!
