I asked them for a little space and they decided to host me on their portal! I'm so glad to be a member of this community. That doesn't mean I' m going to leave this blog. I'll keep on posting here so stay tuned....Alessandro Gentilehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01913149676123715942noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9080177230008715604.post-81216492276252419272012-04-09T09:29:00.000-07:002012-04-16T11:39:00.386-07:00Genesis of a "How to"In my career I often dealt with RMI issues. To me RMI, Corba, and IIOP look much like "vintage" technology. There are more efficient technologies like RESTFul Web Services nevertheless Java EE still relies on such protocols. In many cases portability and interoperability between containers of different vendors it's just a glorified dream. Years ago I tried to set up a IIOP call in a network between two instances of GlassFish and it was a nightmare! I couldn't find any good book or tutorial or how to on this subject so I decided to write one. I'm going to post soon further details....Alessandro Gentilehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01913149676123715942noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9080177230008715604.post-18275115396693352972012-04-06T07:52:00.000-07:002012-04-06T07:54:06.912-07:00Open Source CommunityYesterday I read this <a href="http://blog.eisele.net/2012/04/5-areas-to-contribute-to-glassfish.html" target="_blank">post</a> on Markus Eisele's <a href="http://blog.eisele.net/" target="_blank">blog</a> and I found it very interesting. I completely agree with what he says: writing tutorials is the way I started getting involved in GlassFish community. To me is the opportunity to share ideas with people technically far stronger than me, I'm improving my skills and I'm helping an open source community!Alessandro Gentilehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01913149676123715942noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9080177230008715604.post-26399112278606765502012-04-03T15:29:00.000-07:002012-04-02T15:38:16.775-07:00Alexis's new jobIn this <a href="http://alexismp.wordpress.com/2012/04/02/first-day-on-a-new-job/" target="_blank">post</a> Alexis confirmed my suspicions. Now he works for <a href="http://www.google.com/intl/en/about/" target="_blank">Google</a> and I'm so happy for him. I don't like large companies, they have only one main goal: they want to rule the world.

Yesterday I found <a href="https://blogs.oracle.com/arungupta/entry/why_java_ee_6_is" target="_blank">here</a> an interesting article. I
agree with most of the things Arun writes. It is impossible to
generalize but, as a rule of thumb, If today I had to choose between
Spring (which is a container anyway) and a jee container, I'd go with the latter.... </div>Alessandro Gentilehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01913149676123715942noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9080177230008715604.post-6766222655329182002012-03-31T10:40:00.000-07:002012-04-07T07:57:27.575-07:00Bye Alexis<div style="font-family: inherit;">

Hi everybody,</div>
my name is Alessandro Gentile and I'm an
information technology enthusiast. I love hardware overclocking and
tweaking but lately I focused on software: Java Enterprise Edition. In this blog I'm going to share some news and reviews about software technologies from the open source world.Alessandro Gentilehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01913149676123715942noreply@blogger.com0
