T24 Technical Analyst Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Jboss in comparison with Oracle's Weblogic" June 3, 2021 4.0 I think for any organization, two things matter the most. 1) Resource consumption for the test/uat environments running in datacenter. 2) Licensing cost for maintenance and extensibility of the product. 3) Convenient deployment mechanism for administrator. JBoss provides a great experience in above mentioned areas. Pros We as a financial institution have Temenos T24 Core Banking System implemented that runs over Oracle's WebLogic Manage servers, as far as the production environment is concerned. However, recently we shifted all our testing environments to Jboss, cutting down massive licensing cost of WebLogic. JBoss is a dream if its pricing is compared with other competitor application servers in the international market. It is very light weight and does not consumer much resources in comparison. Cons The only baggage it comes with is the lack of support if required during implementation, apart from whatever material is available on the world wide web. However, the immense learning behind its in-house implementation is also a blessing in disguise. Review Source OD Osman D.

Pros It is very useful to deploy jakarta enterprise based services and applications. Cons Application servers area is out of date versus containerization tech. Reason for choosing JBoss EAP Wildfly Switched from [Apache Tomcat](https://www.capterra.com/p/228528/Apache-Tomcat/) It is performance is better that the other rival Weblogic, Glassfish etc.. It based on undertow for web operations. Undertow is great to blocking and nonblocking socket operations. Review Source AB Awais B.

Being administrator i am using this for the Core Banking software where there are 5000 Users to use it. We have replaced Weblogic with Jboss. Just to decrease cost and boost performance. As i told you its very light not a resource hungry software. Pros 1\.

We also used Websphare and that is also complex as well as costly. 3. Its performance is too good. 4. Its not a hardware hungry software and its very light and less Resources. 5. I have executed COB on Jboss, Weblogic and Websphare. The Result of Jboss was too much excellent. with Same hardware Websphare took 5.5 Hours Weblogic took 6 hours and Jboss took only 4 hours. Cons Nothing is least. Its excellent and i have used this software both features i.e. as Standalone as well as Cluster based with Active MQ.

It ran its course when more robust content management Dashboard such as Confluence, Simpplr, etc became available. Pros Our organization used Redhat Jboss 7 to host our Intranet. It was a quick and easy way for us to manage our internal news and content over a customizable portal. Publishing and managing content was easily managed and was delegated to various content publishers across the organizations. Cons It did not support any of the new HTML5 standards. It was a good product to disseminate static content across out organization for informational purposes. Review Source Bilal S.

Our Bank just shifted from Oracle Weblogic technology to JBoss. We have seen a lot ease of use in it, specially for developers it made life a lot easier for them. Similarly, customisation and java war files deployments are also made more easier with enhanced security and scalability. Cons No doubt it is a lot better than other alternate softwares from the market but still it lacks some features like a user friendly GUI. We hope we will get updates on it soon but still a handy software nonetheless. Review Source AM Adil M.

Very easy to integrate and manage. Pros JBose is open source Jave based runtime platform. It is one of the best platform for building / developing customized robust solution for high performance and self service application. It supports Web services and jave EE, managing cache is part of application and clustering is easy to use. Security features are top notch. Highly efficient for cloud based application. Configuration and administration is easy to use. For developer point of view it is simplified and features simplified features. Very easy to integrate with jave based applications. Cons For non jave based applications, it is hard to establish connection between JBose and these applications. Lack of proper UI is also missing which is sometimes difficult to manage application for new bees. Reason for choosing JBoss EAP Due to more robust and efficient application server having reliable security and cache features. Easy to manage and use. Review Source Qaisar I.
