JBoss is a powerful Java-based open-source application server that is very popular among Java 2, Enterprise
Edition (J2EE) application developers. This document describes how to configure and use the JBoss application
server in OS X Server, which lets you deploy J2EE applications easily and reliably.
This document is intended for system administrators, J2EE application assemblers, and developers. It assumes
you have a solid background in system administration and J2EE technology. You must be familiar with OS X
Server, especially how to use Terminal to issue shell commands. Knowledge of database engines, such as
MySQL, is helpful but not required.
