- Quickly following the July 1, 2008 announcement of the Oracle(r)
Fusion Middleware strategy and plans for integration of BEA products,
Oracle today delivered Oracle WebLogic Server 10g R3.
- Oracle WebLogic Server 10g R3 is among the first of a number of
products that combine technology from Oracle Fusion Middleware and BEA
Systems. These products illustrate the rapid progress that Oracle is
making in combining market-leading technologies from the two companies
into a unified product offering.
- Oracle WebLogic Server 10g R3 is the cornerstone of Oracle
WebLogic Suite, a comprehensive foundation for enterprise applications
and SOA, supporting scale-out application grids, adaptive systems
management and predictable performance.
- Oracle WebLogic Server includes new features and capabilities, as
well as integration with other strategic Oracle Fusion Middleware
products such as Oracle JDeveloper, Oracle Coherence, and Oracle
TopLink, as well as Oracle Enterprise Manager.
- Oracle WebLogic Server (formerly BEA WebLogic Server) is Oracle's
strategic application server and this accelerated release demonstrates
the company's rapid integration and strategic post-merger execution.
Standards-based Hot-pluggability
- Oracle WebLogic Server 10g R3 extends Oracle's hot-pluggable
middleware strategy for flexibility and investment protection.
Hot-pluggable capabilities enable customers to "drop and deploy"
various Oracle Fusion Middleware products into their current IT
environments. This release also supports a variety of development
environments, including Eclipse, Oracle JDeveloper and Oracle WebLogic
Workshop 10.3.
- Oracle WebLogic Server 10g R3 remains the Application Server
standards leader with new support for Java SE 6, new security standards
including SAML 2.0, WS-Security 1.1 and WS-SecurityPolicy 1.2, and, in
Web services JAX-WS 2.1, WS-Reliable Messaging 1.1 and WS-Policy 1.5.
Oracle WebLogic Server 10g R3 was early to implement Java EE 5 in March
2007.
New Features
- Oracle WebLogic Server 10g R3 brings a new level of improved
developer and end-user experience, offering a lighter-weight footprint,
optional service startup, and faster startup, while the new FastSwap
feature provides seamless and rapid develop-debug-test cycles
- Oracle WebLogic Server 10g R3's support for Spring developers is
further expanded so developers can enjoy the Spring experience with the
broad capabilities, stability, and manageability of Oracle WebLogic.
- The new HTTP publish-subscribe feature enables improved
out-of-the-box capability for support of dynamically updated Web 2.0
style rich user interfaces.
- Support for Java SE 6 and JRockit Mission Control allows
developers and end-users to get more performance and insight into
application behavior and responsiveness.
Supporting Quotes
- "The accelerated release of Oracle WebLogic Server 10g R3
demonstrates our commitment to BEA customers to quickly deliver new
integrations with Oracle Fusion Middleware," said Thomas Kurian, senior
vice president, Oracle Fusion Middleware. "As the number one middleware
provider, we plan to continue providing a complete and pre-integrated
middleware suite that allows our customers to develop and deploy
applications on the Internet."
