Apache Tomcat is a popular Web server and Servlet Container developed as an open-source project by the Apache Software Foundation since 1999. Today it is one of the most widely used platform for running Web applications both in simple sites and in large networks.
Nevertheless, the amount of libraries available on Apache Tomcat are usually just enough for very simple architectures which require just the HTTP protocol and a limited number of services; this caused the natural tendency to increase its capabilities with new extensions or modules such as Spring, Hibernate, JDO or Struts.
Although the purpose of this book is not to cast in a bad light on these architectures, we do believe that a comparative knowledge of other solutions can help you to choose the best for your projects. The term of comparison in this book is JBoss application server that is now called “WildFly” since its 8th release; WildFly is a fully compliant Java Enterprise Edition 7 container with a much wider set of available services and options compared to Tomcat. In this book, we will teach you how to port your existing Tomcat architectures to WildFly, including both the server configuration and the applications running on the top of it. We will also give you exposure to the most common pitfalls and drawbacks, which might happen during the migration.

{tab Table of Contents|green}

Chapter 1, Installing WildFly covers the first steps for getting started with the new application server, including installation as a service, start, stop and startup settings

Chapter 2, WildFly configuration introduces the core configuration of the application server and shows how to port the basic Tomcat Web server settings to WildFly.

Chapter 3, Core services configuration covers in detail two core services such as Database connectivity and JNDI which are to be ported in the new infrastructure

Chapter 4, Deploying applications, teaches how to deploy applications on WildFly using file system commands or a set of management instruments.

Chapter 5, Migrating Tomcat applications discusses about the steps needed for migrating your applications from Tomcat WildFly with special focus on Spring, Hibernate and Web services applications.

Chapter 6, Security configuration covers the foundation of the application server Security framework showing how to migrate the security configuration of your Tomcat web server to WildFly

Chapter 8, Clustering is about the nuts and bolts of WildFly’s clustering and the differences with the Tomcat Web server.

{tab Description|blue}

In this book you’ll learn the concepts of SOAP based Web Services architecture and get practical advice on building and deploying Web Services in the enterprise. Starting from the basics and the best practices for setting up a development environment, this book enters into the inner details of the JAX-WS in a clear and concise way. You will also learn about the major toolkits available for creating, compiling and testing SOAP Web Services and how to address common issues such as debugging data and securing its content.

What you will learn from this book:

  • Move your first steps with SOAP Web Services. Installing the tools required for developing and testing applications.
  • Developing Web Services using top-down and bottom-up approach.
  • Using Maven archetypes to speed up Web Services creation.
  • Getting into the details of JAX-WS types: Java to XML mapping and XML to Java
  • Developing SOAP Web Services on WildFly 8 and Tomcat. Running native Apache CXF on WildFly
  • Securing Web Services. Applying authentication policies to your services. Encrypting the communication.

{tab Table of Contents|green}

Chapter 1: First steps with JAX-WS Web Services, discusses about what JAX-WS is and how to get started with developing services using it.

Chapter 2: Developing JAX-WS Web Service Applications, dives deep into Web Services development. In particular, you will get detailed information on how to create Web Service clients from a WSDL contract, how to create a full Web Service project using the WSDL-to-Java tools and top-down methodology. Finally, we will show another option for creating a full Web Service project using a Maven archetype specifically focused on WildFly

Chapter 3: Advanced JAX-WS and JAXB usage, covers some advanced concepts that are often required to deal with non trivial web services applications such as Oneway invocations, JAX-WS handlers, JavaEE injection and JAX-WS components, Asynchronous invocations, Fault handling

Chapter 4: WildFly JAX-WS Provider, provides information on how the JAX-WS specification is implemented in WildFly. While users can certainly rely on the vanilla WildFly configuration, a good grasp of the various layers building up the Web Services stack of the server allows better configuration and tuning.

Chapter 5: Web Services Security, introduces to the most common concerns about Web Services security. After an initial overview of the key security concepts some common scenarios will be described through source code examples and directions on configuring the WildFly container properly.

Appendix: Shows how to create top-down Web Services and Web Service clients using the Eclipse wizard. Detailed instructions on running tests are included.

{tab Table of Contents|green}

Part I: Developing Jakarta EE applications on WildFly

Getting started with WildFly covers the installation of the server platform and introduces the Java EE 8 platform most significant changes. You will learn as well how to install the tools required for developing applications

Getting ready for development discusses the basic steps for configuring the foundation of your Maven projects using the available WildFly archetypes.

Programming Servlet is a first access to application development using the long-lived Servlet API. The chapter spans from the basics to the new Java EE 7 non-blocking I/O feature and Java EE 8 new Servlet Push.

Developing Enterprise Java Beans, is about developing applications using the available EJB types, thus including the basic Stateless and Stateful beans, and the other variants (EJB Timers and Singleton EJB).

Context Dependency Injection discusses about the CDI API starting from the basics and then diving into more advanced concepts like Interceptors, Decorators, Alternatives, Events and the new Transactional option.

Java Server Faces covers the Java Server Faces API with particular focus on building applications using Facelets, shaping navigation between JSF views and the new exciting features of Java Server Faces 2.2

Learning the Java Persistence API after a quick introduction to Java Persistence API, describes how to set up a proof of concept project, how to spice it up using JPA 2.1 new features. Finally, this chapter describes some advanced development strategies such as Caching data and Listeners.

Testing applications using Arquillian is a deep dive into the application server integration testing framework. You will learn how to test our application across several different contexts, including a managed environment, a remote environment and an OpenShift cloud-hosted environment.

Developing applications with WebSockets teaches you how to leverage a full client-server WebSockets application including advanced examples using Encoders/Decoders and Asynchronous communication.

Developing SOAP based Web services discusses about creating, deploying, and testing web services using the JBoss JAX-WS implementation (Apache CXF) and avanced features such as JAX-WS Handlers.

Developing RESTful Web services covers concrete examples of REST Web services including the new JAX-RS client API and some advanced topics such as Interceptors and Filters.

Developing applications with JMS introduces the basics of the messaging service, showing off how to use the new JMS 2.0 API to code producers and consumers and how to create remote WildFly JMS clients.

JSON Processing discusses, after a quick introduction to JSON Structure, some practical aspects of JSON such as creating and parsing JSON models using the Object Model API and the JSON Streaming API.

Batch Processing covers Batch jobs and its specification language as specified by JSR-352. In this chapter, you will learn the two core components of batch jobs: Chunks and Batchlets and some advanced concepts such as Flows and Decision flows.

Java EE Concurrency introduces the Java EE Concurrency API (JSR 236) which outlines a standard way for executing more tasks in parallel on a Java EE Container using a set of Managed resources.

Securing WildFly applications gets you quickly to know WildFly security subsystem, showing how to set up login modules to Web applications and EJB applications and how to use the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) to encrypt their communication.

Part II: Extending Jakarta EE with the Microprofile API

The second part of the book shows how to develop robust and resilient Microservices on WildFly using the following Microprofile extensions:

  • Configuration: to develop portable configurations for your services

  • Health: to receive health checks about the status of the application server

  • OpenAPI: this API can be used to document your REST endpoint using annotations or a pre-generated JSON in a standard way.

  • OpenTracing: which defines behaviors and an API for accessing an OpenTracing-compliant Tracer object within your JAX-RS application

  • Metrics: to provide an unified way to export application metrics

  • Fault Tolerance: to leverage resilience in your services

  • JWT Authentication: to allow systems to authenticate, authorize and verify identities based on a security token.

Part III: Building lean Microservices using Thorntail

The third part of the book will teach you how to create Microservices using the so-called “just enough” application servers to support each component of your system. Includes:

  • Getting started with Thorntail
  • Coding Enterprise applications as Microservices
  • Securing and Harnessing your Microservices
  • Leveraging the Microprofile API with Thorntail fractions
