You can browse the operation/administration manuals and bit by bit assemble these scripts, but this sounds cumbersome and error-prone. Imagine that you are moving your GlassFish domains and instances from one environment to another (maybe even in the cloud) and you have to repeat all the steps needed to re-configure this new environment. In this day and age, DevOps is usually one of the most coveted topics for any organisation: The need to automate the integration and delivery of all aspects of your applications and their dependencies is a constant requirement in most projects. Let's go through these scenarios and showcase how the Payara Platform brings solutions to each one of them. As Payara Server started life as a fully-supported drop-in replacement for GlassFish, GlassFish users find migrating to Payara Server offers a powerful application server that meets their needs while overcoming the common GlassFish scenarios listed above. Classloading conflicts with third-party librariesĪlthough these scenarios are common when running an Eclipse GlassFish project, they already have existing solutions implemented as part of the Payara Platform.Problems preparing container images to deploy on the cloud.Lack of modern security standards support.

If you're running your applications using Eclipse GlassFish, or one of its older iterations, you may have encountered one of the following common issues that hamper the productivity of your application development and overall server management in some capacity:
