This week's webinar is on Fuji, the project delivering the core of OpenESB v3 that provides a lightweight, developer-friendly, and extensible platform for composite application development. Since Fuji leverages OSGi directlly, it is a perfect match for GlassFish v3. The presentation on Thursday, April 16th, 11am US Pacific, at TheAquarium Channel. Full details (and recordings) at the Show Page.

I forgot to mention that there is a WebEx-based webinar starting at 10am PT (in 1/2 hour) on GlassFish ESB. Presenters are Bruce Tierney and Prabhu Balashanmugam, from the GlassFish ESB team at Sun. To enroll, follow this link. You will need to give your contact info to get the invitation. I'm going to try to group all webinar announcements over the weekend to give extra warning time and to avoid colliding with other news.

Update: the webinar is now available for replay.

This week's webinar is on Nuxeo ECM, the Open Source ECM. Stefane will provide details on Nuxeo 5.2 (release/en, release/fr) and will discuss how to build scalable content management applications using OSS JavaEE technologies and sample use cases. Stefane will also describe the plans for Nuxeo 6.0 Nuxeo 5.2 is available with GFv3 Embedded (in addition to Jetty and JBoss) and is a good example of how the architecture of GFv3 extends the applicability of GlassFish into new markets. Presentation on Thursday, March 26th, 11am US Pacific, at TheAquarium Channel. Full details (and recordings) at the Show Page.

I've added SlideCasting to the recordings of the TheAquarium Online shows. The first 3 presentations are from last week's OpenSSO Overview, Adoption and Roadmap presentation; see, for example, the OpenSSO Roadmap by Sidharth Mishra. SlideShare.Net provides a nice tool to create these SlideCasts but every format adds to the time I spend on this, so I am considering dropping a format or two. Please consider visiting this Doodle Poll to vote for your favorite formats.

This week's webinar is on OpenSSO, the open source project that provides enterprise-quality infrastructure to implement single-sign on. Sid and Ajay will present a technical overview of OpenSSO and then will explain how it is being used in a real-world deployment. The presentation will end with a roadmap for the features in future releases of OpenSSO. Presentation on Thursday, March 19th, 11am US Pacific, at TheAquarium Channel. Full details (and recordings) at the Show Page.

The presenter at tomorrow's webinar is Ted Goddard; he will detail how to write rich interface applications using Ajax and Comet using JSF and ICEfaces and will also describe how these relate to the new JSF 2.0 specification in JavaEE 6.

In tomorrow's webinar (Thu) Hans will present on the GlassFish Mobility Platform. Launched at GSMA Mobile World Congress this week (Ryan intro, Vella's Announcement, TA entry), the GF Mobility Platform enables the development of mobile Apps using Java and OMA standards. We had a short presentation last week but tomorrow will be a longer presentation. Full details at the Show Page. And, if you are close to Barcelona (lucky you!) check the booth details.

A quick report on today's Special Webinars: we decided to postpone the Portuguese version for the week of March 1st (next week is Carnival and we can't compete with it), but the Japanese and the Chinese webinars went very well. We had 144 viewers for the Japanese webinar, with a maximum of 44 attendees at a given time, while the Chinese max was 26 but the total of viewers was 153. Plenty of questions and online chatting, and we all decided we will do it again. I still need to schedule my spanish presentation... :-(

Tomorrow (Tuesday, US) we will have special webinars on the GlassFish Portfolio in Portuguese, Japanese and Chinese. The times and presenters are: • Portuguese - Marcelo & Mauricio - Tue, Feb 17th, 10:00am PT / 3pm Brazil • Japanese - Terada-san & Kohsuke - Tue, Feb 17th, 5:30pm PT / 10:30am Tokyo • Chinese - Judy & Jiandong - Tue, Feb 17th, 7:30pm PT / Wed 11:30 am Beijing 1-1.5 hrs, hopefully with plenty of Q&A.

The Sun GlassFish Portfolio includes many products, leveraging the recently released GlassFish v2.1 Server. To explain these, I'm going to host a set of short (10') presentations today, at 11am PT, reusing the slot we had for GFv2.1. Full details at TheAquarium Online. The presenters are the engineering leads for the different products in the portfolio. Slides, other material and, later, recordings, will be posted to the Wiki Page; each presentation will have Q&A opportunity via the associated chat room.

In addition to our regular Thursday slot, Harpreet and Srikanth will present GlassFish v2.1 during an extra webinar this Tuesday, at 11am PT. GFv2.1 is the latest (announcement) release in the GFv2 family; with over 400 bug fixes (since GFv2UR2) GFv2.1 is the basis for SailFin and it is a recommended upgrade. Slides, other material and, later, recordings, will be posted to the Wiki Page; we encourage your participation during the presentation via the chat room.

This week's webinar is on Thursday, Feb 12th, 11:00 am PT. Jane and Kedar will give an overview of ASAdmin, the GlassFish CLI console. ASadmin provides the same functionality as in the GUI console but it is often more adequate for automation. Note - This topic was initially scheduled for Jan 22nd. New material since then includes a section based on GlassFish v3 a discussion on the architectural benefits of ASadmin.

Slides and other material will be posted to the Presentation Page. We encourage your participation during the presentation and recordings will be available later.
