| </table> <h1>Features and Resources </h1> |
| <p>GlassFish Server 7 provides a server for the development and |
| deployment of Java™ Platform Enterprise Edition (Java EE) |
| and dynamic, scalable HTML5 applications. Key features include |
| Servlet 4.0 to support HTTP/2, support for Java SE 8 and |
| updates to some important web standards.</p> |
| <p>This page contains the following topics:</p> |
| <ul><li><a href="#key-features">Key Features</a></li> |
| <li><a href="#resources">Resources</a></li></ul> |
| <h2><a name="key-features"></a>Key Features</h2> |
| <h3>Java EE Support</h3> |
| <p>GlassFish Server supports Java EE 8, which provides the foundation |
| for delivering dynamic, scalable HTML5 applications. Java EE 8 augments |
| support for HTML5 applications by adding support for server-sent events, |
| standardized binding between JSON text and Java objects, HTTP/2 support |
| and improvements to the Java API for WebSocket and the Java API for JSON |
| Processing. Java EE 8 aligns with Java SE 8 so that developers will be |
| able to take advantage of new features such as repeating annotations, |
| lambda expressions, the Date/Time API, type annotations, Completable Futures etc.</p> |
| <p>Java EE 8 and GlassFish Server 7 include the following new and updated Java EE standards:</p> |
| <dl><dt><b>New or Significant Updates</b></dt><dd><ul> |
| <li>Java API for JSON Binding (JSON-B) 1.0</li> |
| <li>Java EE Security 1.0</li> |
| </ul></dd> |
| <dt><b>Updated</b></dt><dd><ul> |
| <li>Java Servlet 4.0</li> |
| <li>Java API for RESTful Web Services (JAX-RS) 2.1</li> |
