"Open Source Tools for J2EE Development" by Aaron Mulder and Erin Mulder
Sponsored by Strategic Systems Solutions
Abstract
Application servers, databases and development tools can get pretty expensive, but you don’t need to break the budget to develop with Java/J2EE. In this session, we’ll look at free and open source options for everything you need, from servers and IDEs to source control, bug tracking, profiling, modeling, automated testing and much more. If you’ve ever wondered how PostgreSQL compares to Oracle, or whether there’s an open source version of OptimizeIt or LoadRunner, this is your chance to find out.
