JBoss Founder Interview

Posted by Hemos on from the talking-with-mine dept.

peterdaly writes "The JBoss website has an interview with Marc Fleury, the JBoss founder regarding his vision. In case you have been living under a rock, JBoss is an Open Source Java Application Server (J2EE) which has been picking up tons of steam recently, especially with the recent introduction of features like clustering. Competing products from companies like IBM (WebSphere) and BEA (WebLogic) go for tens of thousands of dollars, which is interesting since JBoss is starting to have features the big boys don't. JBoss had 72,000 downloads in October. This is a project to watch."

  1. Evangelist? Say it ain't so! by tswinzig · · Score: 3, Funny

    was working at SUN on Java since the early days, mostly as an evangelist in the beginning.

    After reading his responses, you can really tell he had a job as an evangelist. For you Quake/id fans out there, it's like Paul Steed started coding in Java!
