We have published a new WhitePaper on Hudson: Developing Software Collaboratively with Hudson, like the rest of the GlassFish Portfolio WPs it requires (free) SDN registration. The WP provides a good overview of Hudson and Sun's commercial distribution: Sun CI Server (summary), which is part of the GlassFish Portfolio. Check it out and let us know what you think. And, on a separate but related topic, Kohsuke just came back from Presenting at JavaZone and it seems it went very well. The recordings are now available and they look very good - see the Full List, the encodings in Silverlight and MP4. |

JavaZone 2009 is this week, Sept 9-10th, at Oslo Spektrum. It looks like a nice venue, see Wikipedia and Bird's Eye, and they do all sorts of events, from Tom Jones to Muse. It looks like a great conference; like last year, Alexis will be there presenting on GlassFish v3 and this year Kohsuke will also attend to present on Hudson. For a full list of the presentations, check out the Agenda and the List of Sessions. |

• Continuous Performance Testing in the Cloud
by Ole-Martin Mørk, Eivind Barstad Waaler (also on Hudson)

Alexis reports from JavaZone about his presentation on Scripting in GlassFish v3 and reports it was Standing Room Only! JavaZone seems a Nice Conference; maybe Alexis will have some pics to post?. Also from Alexis, a quick recipe for Building GFv2 from Source, in response to some questions in the mailing lists. Be sure to check the comments for clarifications on testing configurations. John recently became a committer into Grizzly. He already contributed a tutorial on Writing a Protocol using Grizzly and now has mutated that into an implementation of HTTP Chunked Transfer Coding - see his writeup on Full Duplex communication. Alex de Marco followed on the free hosting offer from OStatic and already qualified and seems very happy... and, to, give back, he provides a Quick Start Guide on his virtualized container. Release Noises Galore: SpringSource is getting ready their Apache Tomcat-based server, now under the new name ofdm Server RC2... and JBoss now has a Java EE 5-Certified JBoss 5 RC2. I guess I could have filed this under the battle of the RC2s! S2 promises a final release in 2 weeks, JBoss in around 6 - we will see... And on the big-toys front, a new version of BlackBox, the MD D20. I initially thought it would be using a longer container but it is still a 20 footer, just with different internal layout - clearly customer-driven. See the Technical Specs and the overview from On The Record. |

Two news from OpenESB - first a partnership with ComplexEvents.Com in the area of Complex Event Processing (thanks, Prashant). The second is the announcement of an Scheduler Service Engine using OpenSymphony Quartz. Arun has done an update of one of his early Tip Of The Day, showing how to do JDBC Connection Pooling in Rails for GlassFish v3.
And, from Conference-Land:
Kohsuke is in Brazil right now at JustJava -
look for him in the Agenda,

GlassFish is swimming to various places in the next few weeks:
|
Topics covered in those events range from GlassFish v2 and v3, Rails and other dynamic languages in GlassFish, Hudson, Web Services, and more. Please come by even to simply to say hello. We love to hear about how GlassFish and friends are being used around the globe!
I've updated the "Events" sections of the wiki and TheAquarium (this page).

The JavaZone conference is starting tomorrow in Oslo, Norway. Sweden-based IBS JavaSolutions consultants Rikard and Ferid will be presenting tomorrow on HK2, the Module System for GlassFish v3. They promise to make slides and demo code (module creation, repository, scoping) available from http://jsolutions.se. This should be real soon now given the JavaZone organizers intend to make slides available to participants during the conference. |
