A stable and scalable solution that provides excellent technical support with a good response time
What is our primary use case?
What is most valuable?
The solution is quite stable. We are satisfied with it.
What needs improvement?
It's hard to find out the root cause of errors.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using the solution for 15 to 20 years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I rate the tool’s stability an eight out of ten.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The tool is scalable. We have an installation using the JBoss cluster. I think it works pretty fine. Different customers have different numbers of users. The biggest installation has several 1000 users, but not at the same time.
How are customer service and support?
The support is very good. When we have a question, the reaction time is good.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We have used WildFly before. We didn't have any support for that.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is quite straightforward if we are a little bit into the tool. The time taken for deployment depends on what we have to do when we do the deployment. Changing the application is quite simple. Usually, we have to change XML files, update scripts on the database, and shut it down to make the changes.
It also depends on where the application runs and if we do the operations for ourselves or the customers. The deployment and maintenance are mostly done by one or two developers and operations personnel.
What other advice do I have?
I am a developer. If I were to start a software project now, I wouldn’t start it on JBoss. I know that there are approaches to split it up and make it more lightweight. Overall, I rate the product a nine out of ten. Occasionally, we ask Red Hat’s support team some questions. The responses are good, and they help us. Overall, I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

jboss middleware review
What do you like best about the product?
I like flexibility of Jboss; when it comes to logging for external components you can configure easily. Architecture changes like standalone to high-available can be achieved with few steps as very well documented. GUI helps to see if any runtime changes allowed
What do you dislike about the product?
Heavy configuration when it comes to application specific requirements. Developers find it hard to track environmental changes so microservices are better for CI/CD deployments. Manageability sometimes rely on manual or shell scripted procedures.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Active messaging queues, Customer adaption softwares which is written in Java. Benefits are in expansion deployments, EAP brings automation which same inputs can be automated via script provided by Redhat, that makes an easy when you expand your environment

A reliable application server
What do you like best about the product?
There is a lot of documentation all over the internet talking about almost any topic of this server: How can you configure a database pool? How can you activate security? etc...
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not the fastest server in the world. Specially during the startup, if you need to use a lot of modules (datasources, EJBs, queue managers, and so on) don't expect it to start in less than 3-5 minutes.
Of course it might mean that your application is too big to be deployed fast enough.
