JBoss Application Server (or JBoss AS) is a free software/open source Java EE-based application server. Because it is Java-based, the JBoss application server is cross-platform: usable on any operating system that Java supports. JBoss AS was developed by JBoss, now a division of Red Hat.
Versions
JBoss AS 4.0 is a Java EE 1.4 application server, with embedded Apache Tomcat 5.5. Any Java Virtual Machine between versions 1.4 and 1.5 are supported. JBoss can run on numerous operating systems including many POSIX platforms (like Linux, FreeBSD and Mac OS X), Microsoft Windows and others, as long as a suitable JVM is present.
JBoss AS 4.2 is also a Java EE 1.4 application server, but Enterprise JavaBeans 3.0 is deployed by default. It requires the Java Development Kit version 5. Tomcat 6 is bundled with it.
JBoss AS 5.0, the current version, is a Java EE 5 application server. It had been in development for 3+ years and is built on top of a new JBoss microcontainer.
