[jboss-user] [Beginners Corner] - Re: Is an application server the right tool?

[genman]

I have written some fairly important applications that ran on JBoss that were not web based, although having a web component made things easier to manage remotely.

Unlike Weblogic (which is EJB/Servlet-centric), JBoss is really "service" centric. Following the model of the JBoss server itself, you can create .sar files (which like .war) encapsulate a set of services and their support libraries, and with the -service.xml file you install the services as JMX Mbeans which can be easily managed.
