Initiative reflects continued commitment to help enterprise
application developers work quickly and effectively
RALEIGH, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Red Hat, Inc. (NYSE: RHT), the world's leading provider of open source
solutions, today unveiled a new developer subscription program and
resources for members of the JBoss Developer community. In conjunction,
Red Hat launched the next version of its award-winning integrated
development environment, JBoss
Developer Studio. As business is increasingly defined and
differentiated by IT—and specifically the software and services it
provides—developers are on the front lines of innovation in the
enterprise. Together, the new subscription program, resources, and
technology offerings reinforce Red Hat's commitment to help developers
work quickly and effectively.
No-Cost JBoss Developer Subscription
The new JBoss Developer program is a no-cost subscription designed to
improve the accessibility of Red Hat's enterprise-grade open source
middleware technologies for developer use. The program gives developers
more choice and flexibility in terms of the technologies they start
with, and enables them to better plan and prepare for future deployment
into production environments. Under the new program, Red Hat JBoss
Middleware products are available for download by members of the JBoss
Developer community to use in the construction of their own
applications, without a paid subscription. Non-development use will
require a paid subscription, which provides additional benefits such as
full support, security, and updates.
Red Hat JBoss Developer Studio 8
JBoss Developer Studio is an integrated development environment designed
to support the full application development lifecycle. Version 8
introduces support for AngularJS
and Ionic
for building Apache Cordova (HTML5 hybrid) mobile applications. Based on
the latest version of Eclipse, JBoss Developer Studio 8 also introduces Forge
2, which adds a new wizard-driven approach to code generation. A
candidate release of JBoss Developer Studio 8 is available for download
now. Red Hat expects the product to be generally available in fall 2014.
JBoss Developer Community Resources
In support of its developer initiative, Red Hat unveiled a major refresh
of the JBoss Developer community site. The site, which currently has
more than 289,000 users, is designed to be a one-stop shop for
enterprise developers and provides a central location for information
related to community projects, access to Red Hat's enterprise middleware
products under the new subscription, as well as support resources to
help developers create and deploy applications using Red Hat JBoss
Middleware.
Site highlights include quickstarts, tutorials, and reference
architectures, as well as exclusive content and access to enterprise
forums. Developers can expect to see additional content and resources
added to the site over time, including new training courses, solutions,
and demonstrations involving multiple technologies.
