Hyperscale Jakarta EE PaaS on Azure

Track: JakartaEE

Abstract

Azure is the only top tier public cloud with a fully managed Jakarta EE service - JBoss EAP on App Service.

In this fast-faced, demo-heavy, and mostly slide-free session we will show first-hand how to run Jakarta EE on Azure using JBoss EAP on App Service. We will demo in real time how to stand up an instance very quickly and deploy a realistic Jakarta EE application that integrates with some services on the cloud such as database, directory server, cache or log aggregator. We will also see how things like load-balancing, automatic redeployment, auto-scaling, and monitoring work in a hyperscale PaaS.

At the end of the session, you will have all the demos available on GitHub so you can explore them on your own!
