WAS for Developers: A Practical Guide to Tomcat and JBoss/WildFly - Configuration, Troubleshooting, and Performance Tuning

By YOO BYUNG HONG

Stop treating your Web Application Server as a black box.

Most Java developers press Run in their IDE and never think about what happens underneath. But the moment you need to configure a server from scratch, diagnose a production outage, or tune performance, that knowledge gap becomes a crisis.

WAS for Developers is a hands-on guide built from real-world experience - not theory. It covers the two servers you are most likely to encounter on the job: Apache Tomcat and JBoss/WildFly.

What you will learn: Tomcat and JBoss/WildFly architecture from the inside outServer configuration - connection pools, JNDI, data sources, and virtual hostsTroubleshooting techniques for real production problemsPerformance tuning - thread pools, JVM options, and garbage collectionDeployment strategies, logging, and security hardeningMigrating applications from Tomcat to JBossReal-world incident response scenarios and postmortemsIncludes a JVM options cheat sheet, WAS error dictionary, and a configuration comparison covering WebLogic and WebSphere.

Written for working developers, by a working developer with 10+ years of enterprise Java experience.
