This guide describes the components of JEUS web engines, and how to use and monitor them. It is intended for system administrators and developers who deploy and manage Java EE web modules.
To fully understand this guide, users need to have an understanding of the following.
Java EE, servlets, JSPs, and the WebSocket standard
Web application packaging and deployment
JEUS architecture
For information about JEUS and its usage, refer to the following guides.
All examples and environment configurations are written according to the UNIX style. Hence, a few considerations must be given when working in a non-UNIX environment such as Microsoft Windows™(hereafter Windows).
For example, for path delimiters, the UNIX style "/" must be changed to the Windows style, "\". As well, the environment variables must be changed to the Windows style, (%%). JEUS_HOME, which is specified in this guide, is the directory in which JEUS is installed.
Since this guide does not contain information about Java EE or Java specifications, refer to relevant Java documents for more information.
For more information, refer to http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/index.html.
This guide consists of 10 chapters.
Descriptions of each are as follows:
Describes the components and major functions of JEUS web engines and how to configure them.
"Chapter 2. Web Connection Management"
Describes how to manage and set listeners and connectors provided by the web engine.
Describes how to package, deploy, and monitor JEUS web applications.
Describes the concepts, functions, and configurations of the JSP engine.
Describes the basic concepts, rules, and configurations of virtual hosts.
"Chapter 6. WebSocket Container"
Describes the concepts, functions, and configurations of the WebSocket container.
Describes how to use JEUS WebCache to improve the web application performance.
Describes the basic concepts of a reverse proxy and how to use a reverse proxy to improve the web application performance.
"Chapter 9. Reloading Classes at Runtime"
Describes servlet auto reloading that helps reduce the web application development time.
Describes the steps that allow the user to easily become familiar with JEUS.
