Introducing vFabric Cloud Application
Platform 5.0
• Client querying using parameters.
• Combines redundancy, WAN replication, and a “shared nothing” persistence architecture to deliver fail-safe reliability and
performance.
• Continuous querying to provide active data change notifications.
• Horizontally scalable to thousands of cache nodes, with multiple cache topologies to meet different enterprise needs. The
cache can be distributed across multiple computers.
• Support for asynchronous and synchronous cache update propagation.
• Optimized low latency distribution layer for reliable asynchronous event notifications and guaranteed message delivery.
HTTP Session Replication
The GemFire HTTP Session Management Module provides fast, scalable, and reliable HTTP session replication for vFabric tc
Server, Oracle WebLogic Server, and Apache Tomcat with minimal or no application changes. Depending on your usage model,
you can replicate session data across multiple peers, partition data across multiple servers, distribute session data across a WAN,
or manage your session data in many other customizable ways.
vFabric RabbitMQ 2.4
VMware® vFabric RabbitMQ™ delivers highly available, scalable, and portable messaging with predictable, consistent
throughput and latency. It is specifically designed to operate and scale in cloud environments, where applications leverage pools
of shared infrastructure and data is routed between widely distributed applications. RabbitMQ is the leading implementation of
AMQP, an open-standard messaging protocol created as an alternative to costly, proprietary commercial messaging technologies.
Main features of RabbitMQ 2.4.1:
• Offers customers and developers a consistent approach to messaging across multiple stacks and more than 70 developer
platforms.
• Supports all modern messaging patterns: point-to-point (RPC style), point-and-shoot, publish-subscribe, multicast, and more.
All are available as durable or non-durable message types.
• Protocol-based for better interoperability. Other messaging systems are API based, which limits their interoperability.
• Through protocol adapters, supports a full range of Internet protocols for lightweight in-browser messaging— including
XMPP, SMTP, STOMP, and HTTP.
• Transparent integration with Spring Batch and Spring Integration.
• Supported on all major operating systems and developer platforms, and open-sourced under the Mozilla public license.
vFabric Web Server 5.0
VMware® vFabric™ Web Server, which is compatible with Apache Web Server, distributes and dynamically balances
application load to ensure optimal performance. Unlike Apache Web Server, vFabric Web Server is precompiled, prepatched, and
pretuned, resulting in dramatically reduced time-to-deployment and substantially improved performance. vFabric Web Server
provides scalability, enhanced security, and performance without the complexity and cost of sophisticated Web infrastructures.
Support customers receive a standard, certified, easy-to-install software build, continual product updates, security alerts and
patches, guaranteed bug fixes, indemnification on all software in the bundle, and expert technical support.
vFabric Web Server is similar to vFabric ERS. However, vFabric Web Server runs only in a virtual environment,
on vSphere and vSphere guest operating systems. It is available exclusively as part of a vFabric Platform package.
ERS runs on both vSphere and physical infrastructure.
