More than 5 years ago, in early 2015, Bob McWhirter and Ken Finnigan started a research project to answer one question: what would it take to disassemble WildFly into small pieces and package only the necessary ones, together with an application, into one uberjar. That project was called WildFly Swarm and it quickly became popular.

It has been approximately one year since we announced the Thorntail 4.x proof-of-concept with the goal of improving performance and improved developer experience over what 2.x offered. It has been great to see the interest and excitement around Thorntail 4.x from the community. Not long after 4.x was announced, there was an internal proof-of-concept at Red Hat looking more holistically at Java’s use in Kubernetes along with vastly reducing resource requirements and improving performance. On the 7th of March 2019, Red Hat announced the Quarkus project with impressive resource consumption and performance numbers, and a fantastic development experience utilizing SmallRye to implement the Eclipse MicroProfile specifications.

What’s New?

For those of you who like to start your app from the IDE, this release brings a brand new Thorntail Runner.

The Runner class javadoc describes the available system properties to configure the execution.

This release also contains several bugfixes from different areas of the product, such as MicroProfile Config, MicroProfile RestClient or the topology-openshift fraction.

Two new HowTos have been added: how to expose application metrics using MicroProfile Metrics and Prometheus, and how to do distributed tracing with MicroProfile OpenTracing and Jaeger.

There were other improvements around dependencies in some fractions.

WildFly Swarm 2018.2.0

Roman superstition and Math led to the situation that February only has 28 days. We obey to this fact and hence our changelog is bit shorter than usual. Nevertheless, this release is crafted with love - as always.

What’s New?

Microprofile Rest Client

The Eclipse Microprofile Rest Client provides a type-safe approach to invoke rest services, i.e. first we define a Java interface

 @Path("/movies")
 public interface MovieReviewService {
     @POST
     @Path("/{movieId}/reviews")
     String submitReview( @PathParam("movieId") String movieId, Review review );
 }

Now we can use this interface as a means to invoke the actual remote review service like this:

String apiUrl = "http://localhost:9080/movieReviewService";
MovieReviewService reviewSvc = RestClientBuilder.newBuilder()
            .baseUrl(apiUrl)
            .build(MovieReviewService.class);
Review review = new Review(3 /* stars */, "This was a delightful comedy, but not terribly realistic.");
reviewSvc.submitReview( movieId, review );

WildFly Swarm 2017.6.1

"Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new." (Albert Einstein)

What’s New?

What is WildFly Swarm?

WildFly Swarm is the decomposition and reconstitution of the popular WildFly Java Application Server in order to support just enough appserver for microservice type applications.

WildFly Swarm 2017.5.0

To celebrate May Day, we’re going to work 8 hours today and give you the 2017.5.0 release of WildFly Swarm.

What’s New?

More YAML fixes

We’ve fixed, we hope, for the last time, loading of project-.yml with correct precedence, plus the ability to specify the current stage(s) through either the -S command-line argument or through the -Dswarm.config.stage property.

Additionally, we should support both the previous .yml extension and the seemingly more correct .yaml extension. Unless you’re on DOS 3.1. Then you’re still limited to 8.3 naming, of course.

Still better auto-detection

We’ve attempted to improve the auto-detection of required fractions, accounting for javax.security and persistence.xml among other things.

More auto-installed JDBC drivers

We’ve enhanced the list of detected JDBC drivers that WildFly Swarm can wire up for you now, to include:

  • PrestoDB

  • MariaDB

  • Derby

  • Hive2

  • Teiid

General clean-up

When building WildFly Swarm from source, significantly fewer warnings and errors should appear.

Whether to WAR or JAR with WildFly Swarm?

With most things in life we have choices, sometimes a few and sometimes many. When it comes to WildFly Swarm projects with Maven the two choices are war or jar packaging.

Each has different benefits and tradeoffs which we will discuss during this article. By the end I hope it’s clearer as to the best situations to utilize either packaging type.

It’s October, so that means it’s time for candy corn. And a WildFly Swarm release!

October, which comes from the Latin of "octo" meaning 8, is obviously the 10th month. We can thank Julius and Augustus Caesar (July and August, respectively) for giving us a persistent off-by-two error in how we count months.

What is MicroProfile?

MicroProfile is a new initiative in the Enterprise Java community to foster rapid innovation around Microservices and Enterprise Java. A MicroProfile 1.0 will be announced next week at JavaOne, which contains CDI, JAX-RS and JSON-P. For the first release what is present was deliberately kept small. Going beyond 1.0 the community will provide valuable ideas and feedback on both the types of technology that should be included within the MicroProfile, as well as concepts, such as Service Discovery, that should be addressed.

Though MicroProfile focuses on Java EE specifications for 1.0, Java EE is not a requirement for what is produced from the MicroProfile. There will likely be non Java EE frameworks and libraries that the community wishes to include to solve various use cases related to Microservices.

If you’d like to voice your opinions and participate in the community check out the discussions in the Google Group.

Going forward we will be doing releases by month, unless we deem a month unworthy of a release.

Impact of the repository reorganization

Continuing in our trend of announcing versions that are arbitrarily larger than our last release, we’re happy to announce 1.0.0.Beta6.

As usual, beware the Ides of March.

As noted previously, we’ve broken the codebase into discrete chunks, each with its own release cycle. This release represents a released version of the aggregating BOM, which encompasses all of the various released components.

Read More


After some hearty discussion at our face-to-face meeting in Newcastle, UK, along with continuing that discussion on our Google Group, we’ve decided to split apart our monolithic repository into reasonable slices.

Part of the motivation for this split is related to how we version things. Since WildFly Swarm is a fairly quickly-moving project, at least in the near term, there would always be some components in alpha or beta phase, preventing the entirety from being released as final. Especially given that WildFly Swarm is an integration project, the upstream components we integrate with all have varying release schedules, and timing a collective release can be difficult.

To that end, each of the repositories below is roughly linked with its upstream components and can produce independently-versioned bits of WildFly Swarm. Now, a release of WildFly Swarm will actually be composed of a matrix of releases of the various sub-components, not necessarily matching in version numbering.

Since a multitude of versions can certainly make life more difficult for consumers, we’ve added a BOM strategy (see Practical Changes below).

Read More


Swagger Support for JAX-RS Applications

With the release of 1.0.0-Alpha8, WildFly Swarm has introduced support for Swagger, a simple but powerful JSON representation of your REST APIs.

In simple terms, Swagger is a JSON representation of a RESTful API, typically made available over HTTP at /swagger.json. This JSON document contains information about your APIs, including names, paths, endpoints, parameters, descriptions, keywords, expected responses, and more.

Per the Open API Specification, the goal of Swagger is to "define a standard, language-agnostic interface to REST APIs which allows both humans and computers to discover and understand the capabilities of the service without access to source code, documentation, or through network traffic inspection".

If this is your first encounter with Swagger, I suggest you head on over to the Swagger website to learn more about Swagger itself, and what it can do for you.

Read More


What’s New?

There’s slightly less stuf in this release since 1.0.0.Alpha6, but then again, it marks our new trend of fortnightly releases.

  • Based upon WildFly 10.0.0.Final

  • Declarative Configuration (standalone.xml)

  • Swagger UI

  • Generalize service-discovery topology SPI

  • Service-discovery via Consul

  • Container.createDefaultDeployment() is now public, and can be used from your custom main() as a basis for a custom deployment.

  • Update Keycloak to 1.8.0.Final
