The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE®) Program is celebrating its 25th anniversary today! This marks a major milestone in global cybersecurity. Since 1999, the CVE Program has been critical in helping organizations identify, manage and mitigate cybersecurity vulnerabilities through worldwide collaboration. Today, with over 240,000 CVE Records and more than 400 CVE Numbering Authorities (CNAs) across 40 countries, CVE remains a vital resource for vulnerability management and a key component of cybersecurity defense.

Pushing the boundaries of innovation in application development is a must for Insurtech providers whose goal is to deliver competitive advantage for customers, positioning them at the cutting edge of customer experience, operational efficiency and resilience. Succeeding in this goal often requires a full migration to a new application server to create advanced tech capabilities.

When one of the UK's leading technology service providers, CDL, aimed to re-engineer its flagship platform, it opted to migrate to Payara Server Enterprise as the most effective solution to support its goals.

Ensuring Business Continuity When Changing Application Runtime

In today’s digital age, the only constant is change. Yet, one area where change often induces hesitation is in the modernization and migration of application servers for software. Moving mission-critical applications to a different runtime environment can indeed be a daunting prospect, entailing significant investments of time, money and resources. However, when unsatisfied by their current solution, why is the fear of migration operations not giving way to the fear of missing out?

In this blog series 'What’s Stopping Businesses from Application Server Migrations – Insights from Industry Players', we will look at what industry experts say and debunk server migration myths.

Robust and efficient application servers are crucial for companies relying on software applications, whether supporting e-commerce platforms, financial services portals, or internal operations. To ensure smooth operations and deliver seamless services to users, it's essential to partner with vendors who can provide a system runtime that offers maximum uptime. This reduces costs and optimizes performance, profitability, and user satisfaction. Effective service level agreements (SLAs) with these vendors play a key role in minimizing disruptions and ensuring that your applications run efficiently and reliably. 

In this blog post, we share insights from industry players on what to look for in application runtime SLAs to minimize disruptions.

Robust and efficient application servers are essential for companies relying on software applications, whether these support e-commerce platforms, financial services portals or internal operations.  To help ensure smooth operations, deliver seamless services to users and generate revenue, it’s important that the runtime in place can offer maximum uptime to reduce cost while optimizing performance, profitability and user satisfaction. 

In this blog post, we share insights from industry players on the impact of unexpected application server issues and downtime as well as how to reduce them.   

In this customer testimonial, we interviewed Kenneth Kee, CEO of Origin Integrated Studios, currently managing one of the most rapidly growing digital health transformation solution provider companies in Malaysia.

Arshal Ameen, the application architect atRakuten Card - the number one credit card issuer in Japan- recently spoke at the 2019 Kafka Summit. His talk focused on how Rakuten Card is driving innovation in a traditionally conservative Japanese tech culture and how Payara Enterprise Support is helping out on this journey. He also shares further information about the company’s future plans for its Payara environment.

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.

When a leading telecoms company in Switzerland, Swisscom, transitioned to Payara Server from GlassFish for their mission critical applications, they found the migration easy and without problems. In fact, having Payara Enterprise Support meant Swisscom had access to a customer-only build which shortened the time to getting a fix to test by two months and 24x7 access to Payara engineers.
