We're proud to announce that our 2019 Community Survey results are now available! We conducted a survey between September and November 2019 to determine how organizations are using the Payara Platform and what ecosystem components are most commonly used with the platform. Thank you for contributing and helping us gain insight into which features and enhancements the community would most like to see in future releases of the Payara Platform.

Great news for everyone! Today we released a new version of the Payara Platform (5.194) with many exciting new features including production-ready JDK 11 support, Monitoring Console and MicroProfile 3.2 support. This release introduces 50 bug fixes, 13 new features, 20 improvements and 4 component upgrades.

Payara Server provides the Health Check Service for automatic self-monitoring in order to detect future problems as soon as possible. When enabled, the Health Check Service periodically checks some low level metrics. Whenever it detects that a threshold is not met, it triggers alert notifications that allow to detect undesired behavior and predict possible failures. All of these automatic checks are very lightweight and run with a negligible impact on performance.

When creating instances, it can sometimes be a chore remembering what names are already in use or even coming up with a name to use in the first place!  The Dynamic Instance Naming feature, sometimes called auto-naming, introduces a new option to the create-instance & create-local-instance commands that, when enabled, will resolve any name conflicts or generate a name for you.

Java SE comes with many security primitives upon which Java EE builds. JAAS for instance is a well known API in this context, from which Java EE uses the Principal, Subject and to some degree the LoginModule types. The Java EE security APIs JACC and JASPIC make direct use of these types.

Payara Server 5 and Payara Micro 5 are here! We've already blogged about some improvements in Payara Server & Payara Micro 5, but there are many more. 

We know you'll be excited to find that this release includes several usability improvements making Payara Server & Payara Micro's architecture even more innovative, microservices-ready, cloud-native and optimized for production deployments.

Payara Server 5 の (おそらく) 正式リリース前の最後となるベータ・リリースには、いくつかの大きな変更が含まれており、最終的な製品が (バグがなければ) どのようなものになるのか、お分かりいただけるようなものになっています。
