The Sun whitepaper "Build a High-Performance Open Web Platform for Your Enterprise with Sun GlassFish Portfolio," available to readers with an account and log-in ID, reviews the strengths that the Sun GlassFish Portfolio brings to businesses with its innovations ranging from leading open-source communities, packaged in a solution that offers flexible subscription-based pricing and enterprise-class support. The Sun GlassFish Portfolio offers enterprises of all sizes the extreme scalability and reliability they need for mission-critical applications.

The GlassFish Portfolio is considered the leading open Web application platform for enterprises seeking a more open, flexible, rich, and cost-effective way to develop and deploy their Web application infrastructures, the whitepaper contends. It provides superior price-performance leadership and the most complete platform built on open-source software, allowing enterprises to develop highly scalable, extremely reliable, and affordable enterprise Web applications.

Sun’s leadership in industry standards ensures that the GlassFish Portfolio meets current standards (Java EE 5), and Sun’s leadership in open source ensures that the portfolio provides developers and administrators access to the latest innovative standards and capabilities. The GlassFish Portfolio offers tremendous value to enterprises looking to leverage the benefits of open source by pre-integrating the best components, ensuring mission critical capabilities, and bundling production support and service level agreements (SLAs).
