JBoss Uses Adobe Flex to Build New Web-Based Mail Client

Adapted from http://au.sys-con.com/read/225695.htm

 

The JBoss Mail Server (JBMS) has been recently re-branded for its upcoming 1.0 release as "JBoss Collaboration Server." The web-based mail client component of the whole collaboration server package, says JBoss's Andy Oliver, is "spellbinding." The JBMS team used Adobe Flex 2.0.

James Ward, a Technical Evangelist for Flex at Adobe, notes that the Flex 2.0 SDK is free to develop with and deploy:  and that Flex's source is open.

"Flex & Flash are greatly influenced by Customer Advisory Boards and private & public beta groups," Ward explains. "Although it's not as formal as the JCP, it works similarly," he adds. 

Aside from Flex, there are other options for using Flash as a RIA runtime like FABridge, Aflax & OpenLaszlo, Ward says. But Flex 2.0 is definitely what makes JBoss Mail server rock, according to Oliver.

Capacity Planning - a statistical and probabilitisic approach
-A Case Study on Concurrent Users of Breeze Meeting

Abstract:

Most people will do the capacity planning based on i) benchmarking on their own or similar configuration ii) taking a reference on similar projects. Can we use a more mathematical approach to do that? In this article, I will try to show you how to do the capacity planning using a statistical and probabilitist approach through Gaussian distribution.
