Latest Released Version 5.3.0.
Welcome to the WSO2 Application Server.
The WSO2 Application Server is an enterprise-ready cloud-enabled application server, powered by Apache Tomcat, and Apache TomEE, it integrates Apache CXF framework. It provides first class support for standard Web applications, JAX-WS/JAX-RS applications and Jaggery scripting applications. Coupled with features of WSO2 Carbon, users can now manage their applications including JAX-WS and JAX-RS to web applications in a unified manner within the management console itself.
Application Server also provides a comprehensive Web services server platform using CXF as its Web services runtime, and provides many value additions on top of this runtime. It can expose services using both SOAP and REST models and supports a comprehensive set of WS-* specifications such as WS-Security, WS-Trust, WS-SecureConversation, WS-Addressing, WS-SecurityPolicy, etc. WSO2 Application Server also has inbuilt support for Jaggery. WSO2 Application Server can be installed on on-premise or any public/private cloud infrastructure and provide unified management console and lifecycle management features which are independent from underlying deployment option.
