Sun ONE Application Server Integration

This feature is new for the SPARC platform in the Solaris 9 12/02 release. In the Solaris 9 12/03 release, this feature is also available for the x86 platform.

Sun ONE Application Server 7, Platform Edition (formerly iPlanet^TM Application Server) is integrated in the Solaris operating system. The Platform Edition of the Application Server provides the foundation for enterprise-class application services and web services. The server provides a high-performance, small-footprint Java^TM 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE^TM). J2EE enables the development, deployment, and management of enterprise applications and web services to a broad range of servers, clients, and devices.

The Sun ONE Application Server provides application portability and fast time to market for new Java and Extensible Markup Language (XML) applications. These new applications are J2EE 1.3 platform compatible. The Application Server enables developers to build applications that are based on JavaServer Pages^TM (JSP^TM), Java Servlet, and Enterprise JavaBeans^TM (EJB^TM) technology. This technology supports a broad range of business requirements from small departmental applications to enterprise-scale, mission-critical services.
