Hi,
I was wondering today if we could provide a production quality XE packaging.
Here's what would be my combo:
* Jetty 6 or 7
* Latest Derby (aka JavaDB - which is included in JDK 1.6 BTW) in embedded mode See http://developers.sun.com/learning/javaoneonline/j1sessn.jsp?sessn=TS-45170&... for performance stats
* Java Service Wrapper See http://wrapper.tanukisoftware.org/doc/english/integrate.html The nice thing with the wrapper is that it can also monitor the JVM and restart it if hung or not responding, in addition to restarting the service when the machine is rebooted of course.
I'm confident that we could offer a base packaging that would work well for relatively large usages of XE and that is still small and all- preconfigured.
Basically I think we could replace our current combo of Jetty 5.x + HSQLDB with this new combo and still get the best of both worlds: * simple packaging * production level quality
Whereas our current standalone packaging is not production ready and is just for getting started with XWiki.
WDYT?
The most important thing for me is the support of catalogs (to be tested) which could permit a XEM standalone package/installer which would be obviously great. Plus the fact that Derby is becoming the "standard" java database even included in the jdk. So +1
Thanks -Vincent
