Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform is a subscription based, open - source platform for building, deploying and hosting Java applications and services. We are using it as application server for 4 of our applications. We have total 25 Virtual Machines running JBoss EAP. We have configured domain controller, host controller and singleton Jboss instances. We are currently using it entirely on-premise but we have future plans to move it to cloud or at least hybrid cloud. The deployment is easy, resulting in lower cost and speedier deliveries.
- JBoss deployment and configuration is easy and fast. This leads to lower cost and faster deliveries.
- Jboss gives you lot of flexibility around performance tuning options to better suite your application needs.
- It is modular and cloud ready. This can be installed on-premise and cloud with equal ease.
- I specifically love it's integration with mod_cluster. It is a smart httpd based load balancing component that listens to incoming requests on web server using httpd and then intelligently routes the request to Jboss hosts.
- Jboss CLI is a great tool but we had trouble using it to get values that are displayed on Jboss GUI. It also has limitations parsing the applications.xml files and we had to use a mix of jboss-cli and linux bash commands to automate certain application administrative tasks.
- JBoss doesn't really provides performance tuning recommendations. It would have been nice if it could learn from the current demand vs current settings for things like connection pool, server configurations, garbage collection etc.

- Jboss EAP is easy to deploy and configure. This lead to lower cost and faster delivery.
- Even though we have large number of machines running JBoss, we have only two Jboss Administrators. It doesn't requires too much administration and maintenance on daily basis and reduces number of administrators required for large implementations.
WebSphere Application Server is propriety and increases project cost. It is slightly complicated to learn when compared to Jboss EAP. These were the two main reasons why we chose Red Hat JBoss EAP over WebSphere Application Server.
Also, JBoss EAP is light weight and requires less server resource.

Red Hat JBoss EAP is subscription based, open source product and hence it is reasonably cheap and reliable compared to other propriety products in market.
My team had a little tough time understanding how to leverage JBoss for clustering. We would like to train them on that and also on performance tuning which plays key in JBoss environment since out of box settings are mostly not best for your application needs.

Cost effective, easy to setup application server for high transaction java applications
We are currently transforming a legacy mainframes system running People Soft to a more advanced ERP solution. We are using Red Hat JBoss EAP for the application server layer. We have around 40 JBoss instances running lots of JVMs for multiple applications. We have configured domain controllers, host controllers, and singleton JBoss instances. We are also using mod_cluster integration in JBoss EAP, which is an intelligent load balancer. We build, deploy and host high transaction java applications on Red Hat JBoss EAP.
- MOD_CLUSTER integration. JBoss EAP integrates pretty well with mod_cluster. This is an intelligent load balancer especially useful in highly clustered environments.
- Supports enterprise-grade features such as high availability clustering, distributed caching, messaging etc.
- Supports deployment in on-premise, virtual and hybrid cloud environments.
- Out of the box performance tuning. I have often felt the need to tune things like connection pool, server configuration, garbage collection for performance. It would be nice if JBoss were able to set some of these out of the box and require administrators to just turn on/off the feature.
- Jboss-cli is a good command line utility but is still a little complex to learn. It also has a limitations query JBoss command line for certain values that you can see on the JBoss GUI interface.

- Improved delivery timelines due to easy out of the box setup.
- It is a cheap subscription-based/open-source Java EE-based application server. This reduces the overall cost of delivery.
We decided to use Red Hat JBoss EAP as it lowers our overall cost, supports all the features that we are looking for including clustering, distributed caching and web services.
JBoss EAP is modular and has cloud-ready architecture.

Price and Prior experience with the product are two main reasons why we decided to use JBoss Red Hat EAP. It's low cost , subscription based open source product. It's easy to setup and maintain.
Although, we are pleased with our selection, but some of the team members who have worked on other application server platforms, they would like us to go through demo sessions of those products as well. This little extra effort might be useful if there are other products which offers features that we can't live without.
- Integration with mod_cluster for smart load balancing.
- Administrative tasks such as bouncing host controller, domain controller and JVMs.
- Application deployment is quite straight forward as well.
- Without a performance diagnostic and recommendations feature, performance tuning is quite cumbersome.
