Asynchronous Request Processing in Servlet 3.0
One of the more exiciting features in the new Servlet 3.0 specification is the standard support for asynchronous request processing, opening up a new gateway for innovative technologies. Asynchronous request processing breaks the thread per request limitation that the Servlet technologies have long suffered from. While containers have provided this functionality in the past, all implementations have been propriatery and often not offered complete solutions. The Servlet 3.0 asynchronous API aims to address a majority of the uses cases for true Web 2.0 functionality as well as keeping the complexity of asynchronous programming at a minimal level.

Monitoring, troubleshooting and tuning web application in production environments
Managing production environments offers a large set of challenges. Restricted access, a limited tool set, unpredictable traffic patterns and organizational gaps are only a few. To overcome these barriers one must understand the process, the runtime environment and the practical application of technologies and their behaviours. In this interactive session we will demonstrate capabilities that enable developers, administrators, and operators to diagnose, measure, and monitor their applications and the infrastructure their applications are deployed on. The goal is to achieve swift isolation, correct diagnosis and minimum impact resolution.
Session Detail
Upgrading to Tomcat 7
This session is aimed at users who are considering an upgrade to Tomcat 7 or who have already upgraded and want to make sure they are taking full advantage of the new features available in Tomcat 7. The session will briefly cover the new features provided by the updated specifications (Servlet 3.0, JSP 2.2 & EL 2.2) before spending the bulk of the session examining the new security, authentication, authorization, resource management, reverse proxy, embedding, parallel deployment, stability and management features as well as covering the important changes in the configuration settings. The session will end with a look ahead to future plans, including Tomcat 8.
