vFabric tc Server 2.6 (Spring Edition)
VMware® vFabric™ tc Server is 100-percent compatible with Apache Tomcat 7. It has all the runtime advantages of Tomcat,
plus operational management, advanced diagnostics, mission-critical support, and unmatched visibility into Spring-powered
applications — none of which are available in the open source product.
tc Server harnesses the power of traditional JEE architectures while eliminating their complexity and performance drawbacks,
making it easier, faster, and more cost-effective to build and run cloud-ready applications. With its lean architecture and small,
10MB memory footprint, tc Server requires significantly fewer resources than conventional servers, which allows for greater
server density in virtual and cloud environments. tc Server supports integration with VMware tools and vFabric Hyperic, and
provides templates for vFabric GemFire session replication.
Main features of vFabric tc Server Spring Edition:
• vFabric tc Server instances are compatible with existing Apache Tomcat applications, thus eliminating migration costs and
cycles.
• Parallel deployment. Deploy multiple revisions of the same application at the same time so you can roll out a new revision of
an application without affecting users.
• Automatic instance upgrades. A new script lets you easily upgrade tc Server 2.0 and 2.1 instances to function with tc Server
2.6.
• Automated deployment of applications to multiple instances of tc Server and standardized templates for rapid provisioning of
new instances.
