Red Hat/JBoss JBoss, Hibernate, and JBoss ON are highlighted in a discussion of the ways in which Red Hat's acquisition of JBoss reaffirms commitment to open source middleware. At the first JBoss show following the acquisition, key announcements were in the areas of open source strategy, systems management, general availability of JBoss Seam 1.0, and the Certified SAAS program. The last is a certification program for providers and will support companies that develop and deliver products as solutions using JEMS. JBoss will promote open agents by building a community and bolstering the pervasiveness of its management platform. JBoss will open source the core systems management agent in JBoss ON to increase and push adoption of the company's open management platform. The JBoss Seam 1.0 offering, an application framework for Web 2.0 applications, integrates AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript And XML), JSF, EJB 3.0, Java portlets, BPM, and a workflow management platform. Rich Friedman, director of product management at JBoss, released a statement saying that the company is opening up JBoss ON to create a broad enterprise management solution that extends across platforms and middleware. Marc Fleury, founder of JBoss and now senior VP of the JBoss division of Red Hat, said the deal is a natural merging of two leaders in the open source space.
