TomEE PluME--Like GlassFish But With Commercial Support 📎
TomEE 1.7.1 Plus with Mojarra and EclipseLink (PLUME) feels like GlassFish 3 (Java EE 7 is not supported yet by TomEE), but comes with commercial support.
TomEE 1.7.1 PLuME is regular TomEE plus with Mojarra and EclipseLink.
I just deployed some JAX-RS, EJB 3, CDI, JSF, JPA (EclipseLink) applications developed on GlassFish to TomEE PluME and it worked without any modifications. TomEE works well with NetBeans 8+ -- just add an existing instance as a Tomcat server and you will be able to deploy straight from NetBeans.
The great story about Java EE is: when one vendor loses its commercial interests, several others (WLP, WildFly) can easily step in. The vendor lock-in is minimal.
