Standards Support
JRun 4 implements the complete J2EE platform specification, including Java Server Pages, Java Servlets, Enterprise JavaBeans, Java Message Services, and other Java and web services APIs.
Certified J2EE 1.3-compatible:
JRun 4 is certified J2EE 1.3-compatible, implementing the latest standards support for the complete Java 2 platform APIs.
Advanced EJB 2.0 support:
The JRun 4 EJB container has been rearchitected to provide superior support for the new EJB 2.0 features, including local interfaces, message-driven beans, EJB-QL, and Container Managed Persistence (CMP) 2.0.
Web services integration:
Building web services in JRun 4 is as simple as editing a deployment descriptor to expose your regular Java classes or Enterprise JavaBeans as web services. Consuming web services is equally easy: JRun 4 automatically generates Java proxies for web services based on their WSDL files. JRun 4 has integrated support for open web services protocols such as SOAP, WSDL, and UDDI.
Presentation Services
Macromedia Flash MX remoting services:
With built-in Macromedia Flash MX player connectivity, it's easy to provide your J2EE applications with a high-impact user interface. Macromedia Flash MX remoting allows user interfaces built in Macromedia Flash to connect to EJBs, Java classes, and MBeans simply, quickly, and securely.
JRun Server Tags technology:
JRun Server Tags (JST) allow you to write custom tags using JavaServer Pages, instead of the more complex custom tag handler. Custom tag development is faster and more approachable.
Built-in web server:
JRun 4 ships with a built-in, high-performance HTTP server. Additionally, JRun 4 provides connectors for support of other leading HTTP servers.
High-performance web server connectors:
High-performance and clustering-enabled web server connectors also allow you to use JRun 4 with all the major web servers, including Apache, Microsoft IIS, Netscape Enterprise Server, iPlanet, and Zeus.
Performance and Scalability
Superior performance and breakthrough Jini technology-based server-cluster management capabilities allow your applications to scale in a reliable and highly optimized runtime environment.
Superior servlet and JSP performance:
The elegant and small footprint architecture in JRun 4 is optimized for performance. Since its introduction in 1997, JRun is recognized as the fastest web container in the application server market.
Advanced Jini technology-based server clustering:
JRun 4 provides enterprise-class server clustering, allowing load balancing and automatic failover at all levels: web server, web connector, and component. JRun servers use Jini technology to dynamically locate their peers in the cluster, eliminating the risk inherent to a single point of failure.
Performance tracing:
Instrumentation allows you to identify and resolve performance bottlenecks in your code by tracing and timing each method invocation in your application. Instrumentation is supported for JSPs, servlets, and EJBs.
Development and Deployment Services
In addition to the core J2EE services, JRun 4 includes features to simplify and speed the development and deployment process. Using the power of the new JRun 4 development and deployment features, you can deliver your applications faster in a non-stop server environment.
Auto deployment:
Deploying an application is as simple as copying an EAR, JAR, WAR, or RAR file to the server directory. JRun 4 automatically senses the new file, deploys it, and makes it available in the target server: there's no need to restart the server.
Hot Modification:
During development, you can hot modify any application component (servlets, JavaServer Pages, Enterprise JavaBeans, Java classes, deployment descriptors). The changes take effect immediately, without restarting the server.
XDoclet integration:
XDoclet is tightly integrated into JRun 4. When modifications are made to the source file, JRun 4 will automatically generate the necessary auxiliary files, such as interfaces and deployment descriptors.
EJB development and deployment tool:
The Enterprise Deployment Wizard streamlines developing and deploying Enterprise JavaBeans. With new O/R mapping capabilities for CMP 1.1 and CMP 2.0, you can generate and deploy a fully-functional entity bean in minutes.
IDE integration:
JRun 4 integrates with industry-leading development tools, such as JBuilder, IntelliJ, Forte, and WebGain.
Data Access Services
Bundled type IV JDBC drivers:
JRun 4 comes with high performance JDBC drivers for the leading databases: Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, Sybase, DB2, and Informix.
Java API for XML parsing (JAXP):
JRun 4 integrates a JAXP-compliant XML parser and an eXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformation (XSLT) engine.
Application and Server Management
JRun Management Console:
The redesigned, JMX-enabled JRun Management Console (JMC) provides an easy-to-use, web-based graphical user interface to manage your local and remote JRun servers. Using the JMC, you easily create servers, define clusters, manage applications, and implement JAAS-based security.
Point-and-click server cluster administration:
Installing and managing a cluster of JRun servers is straightforward. Using the JRun Management Console (JMC), you define and administer a cluster in a point-and-click environment. JRun 4 also simplifies the deployment of applications into a clustered environment. The JMC provides a one-step deployment option to all the servers in the cluster.
Open and Extensible Architecture
Built on an elegant JMX service-oriented architecture with a small footprint, the JRun 4 Server is easily customized, extended, or embedded to meet your unique business requirements.
Service-oriented architecture:
JRun 4 services - EJB container, web container, logging, and others - are implemented as MBeans plugged into the JMX-based JRun kernel. This plug-in architecture provides a highly customizable and easily extensible deployment platform.
Java Message Service (JMS):
JRun 4 includes a durable and transactable JMS 1.02b-compliant provider that supports both point-to-point and publish/subscribe synchronous and asynchronous messaging. JRun 4 can also be used in conjunction with an external JMS provider, such as SonicMQ.
Small Disk Footprint:
JRun 4 is a lean and efficient application server that does not carry the excess overhead that goes along with legacy technology. JRun 4 lets you control the components you install and activate to optimize memory resources at runtime.
JRun 4 is the fast, affordable, and reliable platform for developing, deploying, and managing your J2EE compatible applications
Integration with Macromedia Flash MX
With built-in connectivity to Macromedia Flash Player, it's easy to provide your J2EE applications with high-impact user interfaces. Support for Macromedia Flash Remoting allows user interfaces built in Macromedia Flash to connect to EJBs, Java classes, and MBeans deployed in JRun 4 in a simple, fast, and secure manner.
Browser-based Management Console
JRun 4 server and application management is accomplished through the JRun Management Console, a web-enabled user interface that keeps everyday tasks simple and fast. Wizards and dialog boxes walk you through the steps you need to take to create servers, define clusters, manage applications, and implement security.
