Presentation: "The end of the application server as we've known it"
Time: Thursday 15:45 - 16:45
Location: Concordia
Standard Application Servers as we've known them only partially address enterprises' needs for scalability. As a result, a new class of application servers has emerged, focused on massive scalability. In this session, we will explore some of the common characteristics of these servers while looking at how to migrate an existing Java EE web app to a scale-out application server, relatively seamlessly.
In the live demo part of this session, we will take an existing Java EE/Spring application (the famous 'pet clinic') and use a cloud-based environment to demonstrate how you can add dynamic scaling, self healing and improved performance with almost no changes to your code.
