Also Announces General Availability of JBoss Developer Studio 5
RALEIGH, N.C. & BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
RED HAT SUMMIT AND JBOSS WORLD 2012--Red Hat, Inc. (NYSE: RHT),
the world's leading provider of open source solutions, today announced
the launch of a new initiative named The JBoss Way. The initiative is a
development approach that provides a more productive and simple way to
create modern applications. The JBoss Way introduces a new set of
frameworks, tools and architectural designs focused on improving
developer productivity in building modern applications for mobile, the
cloud and more.
Innovations such as HTML5, mobile, web-browser eventing, Java EE 6,
cloud deployment and in-container testing can be quickly and easily
adopted as part of The JBoss Way. Red Hat has assembled and integrated
technical advances from the open source community as part of JBoss
Developer Studio 5 and JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6,
including Java EE 6, Arquillian, Hibernate 4, AeroGear, Errai,
RichFaces, JBoss Forge, TorqueBox and Red Hat OpenShift. The combination
of these technologies improves developer efficiency and provides
technical capabilities that address modern application requirements, all
with a cohesive architectural approach.
The JBoss Way directly addresses the challenges associated with the
adoption and integration of new technologies by providing a clear path,
recommended usage, and strong focus on enablement. Developers will find
a large and growing variety of resources, including a complete series of
tutorials, Maven archetypes, architectural guidance, screencasts,
reference architectures and more than 50 quick-starts, enabling them to
quickly adopt new innovations. A reference application, TicketMonster,
has been created and highlights various architectural approaches. The
JBoss Way is focused on providing developers with the latest open source
innovations with a practical path for rapid and easy adoption.
Red Hat also announced general availability of JBoss Developer Studio 5,
which makes it easy to start developing The JBoss Way. JBoss Developer
Studio 5 contains multiple wizards, making it simple to start using the
technology without the typical learning curve. JBoss Forge is embedded
within the JBoss Developer Studio 5 and allows developers to realize
immediate results without needing a complete understanding of the entire
specification and configuration requirements of an unfamiliar
programming model.
Additional features in the new release include: comprehensive CDI
tooling, a browser simulator designed to mimic different mobile browsers
and deep Maven integration. All of these are designed to enhance
productivity and help developers build applications using JBoss
Developer Studio 5.

Mark Little, senior director,
Middleware engineering, Red Hat
"Since its beginning more than
a decade ago, JBoss has been renowned for appealing to the Java
middleware developer community. Over the past 10 years, through efforts
such as Hibernate, JPA, Seam, CDI and JBoss Developer Studio, we've
ensured that our focus on improving developer productivity has remained
core to everything we do, including our work with the standards.
Projects such as Drools, Switchyard, Errai and Infinispan take this
emphasis beyond Java EE so that whatever your area of interest, JBoss
tools offer the solutions you need to develop and deploy your
applications. We care about developers and I believe we've shown that
time and time again, with innovation throughout our projects and our
products. We expect that the momentum we've built up is only going to
increase through The JBoss Way initiative and collaborative projects."
Paul Bakker, engineer, Luminus Consulting
"Java EE 6 has
proven to be an ideal stack to build enterprise applications. The Java
EE ecosystem is very large, however, it contains a lot of APIs and
related tools. This might be overwhelming for new developers, making it
hard to get started. The JBoss Way gives you guidance on how to
structure your application, which tools to use and how to test your code
to create standards-based enterprise applications. Two of the highlights
of The JBoss Way are JBoss Forge and Arquillian. Forge is a tool that
makes it trivial to set up your Maven-based project and add Java EE
technology to it. Arquillian brings in-container integration tests to
Java EE, which gives you the power to test all your code in an easy but
realistic way."
