What Customers Are Saying
"Sun, as a leader in Java, Web technologies and open source, has greatly reduced our concerns of vendor lock-in with GlassFish ESB. As a component of Sun's new GlassFish Portfolio, which provides a complete platform for dynamic Web applications development, production support, and a strong commitment to standards, Sun's GlassFish ESB has allowed us to create new revenue generating Internet products and better serve our customers -- all with a lower TCO and initial investment."

CIO Pretium Telecom
"GlassFish Enterprise Server has consistently been ahead of the competition in terms of Java EE 5 compliance. I also feel that the GlassFish architecture is superb overall. In addition, MySQL is pretty much the brand name for a versatile open-source database, so our choice to use it was a no-brainer."
