It's a new year so it's time for a new WildFly! I'm pleased to announce that WildFly 22.0.0.Final is now available for download at
https://wildfly.org/downloads/. Please try it out and give us your feedback.
This release includes support for use of log4j2 in applications, new base health and metrics subsystems to provide server observability for users who don't need the application instrumentation that comes with MicroProfile Health and Metrics, and a number of other features related to management, provisioning, messaging and security. Plus numerous bug fixes, enhancements and component upgrades.
We've also released an updated version of the new tech-preview WildFly Preview distribution that we're providing to let our community have a look at what we're doing for Jakarta EE 9 support, along with other changes in the server architecture that we're expecting to appear in the main WildFly later in 2021.
