We recently created a new guide to help you move from WebSphere Application Server to Payara Server 5.
Payara is better than WebSphere, for reasons including Payara's more regular releases, greater variety of supported IDEs, a compatible microservices edition (Payara Micro) and varied monitoring options.
Hermes, the logistics provider, is just one company which made the change from WebSphere to Payara Server!
It should be a simple and straightforward process to migrate, because of sharedJakarta EE(Java EE) specifications. This guide is ready to help in areas where there are differences.
Among the topics covered are:
- WebSphere products
- Clustering
- Operations
- Monitoring
- How is Payara Server Better than WebSphere Application Server?
