“This tutorial is a guide to developing enterprise applications for the Java Platform,
Enterprise Edition 7 (Java EE 7), using GlassFish Server Open Source Edition.
GlassFish Server Open Source Edition is the leading open-source and
open-community platform for building and deploying next-generation applications
and services. GlassFish Server Open Source Edition, developed by the GlassFish
project open-source community at https://glassfish.java.net/, is the first
compatible implementation of the Java EE 7 platform specification. This lightweight,
flexible, and open-source application server enables organizations not only to leverage
the new capabilities introduced within the Java EE 7 specification, but also to add to
their existing capabilities through a faster and more streamlined development and
deployment cycle. GlassFish Server Open Source Edition is hereafter referred to as
GlassFish Server.”
