The four speakers – Alexis Moussine-Pouchkine (Sun GlassFish), Paolo Ramasso (Oracle Fusion Middleware), Alessio Soldano (RedHat JBoss) and Alef Arendsen (Spring dm Server) – are warming up the presentations and the demos, ready to make this one of the most interesting, thought-provoking, fun event to be at this year. Four Java application servers discussed and debated in one big room with the community: yes, it’s real!!!
Talking about the community, if you’re in Genoa or can visit Genoa for at least one day (Genoa can easily be reached by train from northern and central Italy, as well as from other places through its international airport), please register on-line. Participation is free, but your registration can help us organize a few things in advance. Invite your friends, invite your colleagues. Help make this a great community event.
The Application Server Day will be held at the Faculty of Engineering, in the Albaro district of Genoa. A map and directions on how to reach the venue are published here.
Following the success of last year Java IDE Day, the entire JUG staff is happy to announce a new special community event: the Java Application Server Day 2009!
The last six months have seen big news on the application server front, including substantially new releases of most major app servers (both commercial and open source), and, last week, news about the Oracle-Sun merger. We hope it will be both interesting and exciting to hear about the technical innovations directly from the evangelists and members of the development teams of four well-known application servers: JBoss, Glassfish, Spring dm Server, Oracle/Weblogic.
Speakers will include Alexis Moussine-Pouchkine (Sun GlassFish), Paolo Ramasso (Oracle Fusion Middleware), Alessio Soldano (RedHat JBoss)& Alef Arendsen (Spring dm Server), who will compare the most innovative features of theri respective server platforms.
The Application Server Day 2009 will take place
thursday May 21st 2009, 14.30-18.30
in
room B1, Faculty of Engineering, University of Genova,

Our last call for topics/speakers received enthusiastic responses from JUG members… so we are happy to announce that we have a full program for the next eight months! So, get ready for the next meetings on
After the great success of last year edition (with more than 1000 participants) of the community event, JUG Rome is again very busy organizing a “bigger and better” third edition, which will take place saturday 24th January 2009.
The event will focus on 30 technical presentations, covering Web 2.0, Object Oriented and beyond, Spring and open source, Mobile and collaboration,new languages, with both Italian and international speakers (including members of JUG Genova … ).
The recent NetBeans Demo Camp special meeting was definitely a success! We had an higher than usual attendance, with several new faces. Again, we thank NIS for hosting the meeting…
Giampaolo Melis on JavaFX
Fabrizio Giudici on NetBeans 6.5
Everyone enjoyed Fabrizio’s presentation on the latest NetBeans 6.5 features (hibernate support, JavaScript debugging, incremental compilation, and more), and Giampaolo presentation and demo on the integration of Java FX and Java. Giampaolo presented several hybrid applications where a JavaFX GUI enriches a Java application logic.
The topics for the next meeting, which will take place on the 20th January 2008 will be announced shortly… stay tuned!
