JRebel remote server as a Service - java

JRebel has the possibility to deploy an application on a remote server.
To do this, according to the documentation, the JRebel agent should be put in the server boot.
Later tools like Eclipse provide the ability to connect to the remote server and deploy the application.
According to the documentation in the Eclipse plugin the URL of the remote server is simply indicated.
Doubts:
[Server level] Is possible to develop into a JRebel-enabled server, its own service, as a kind of customized end point receiver for deploy jrebel requests ... ? The idea would be to have a unique "JRebel_Deploy_Receiver_As_A_Service" url
[CLIENT level] Is possible to develop a custom client application, instead of being Eclipse o other marketplace tool.. In other words, to develop a client for deploy against a JRebel enabled server in the given endpoint?

There are no current plans for developing standalone utility to sync changes to remote JRebel server via the remote protocol used in IDEs. As for server-side, it's difficult to understand what would be the purpose. If all you want is to push files to server, there are plentiful of applications allowing you to do this, e.g. RSync.

How to Deploy a Java Web Service in a Private Network

I was able to create a JAVA Rest API Web Service using SpringBoot. How do I deploy it so not only my localhost can access it but other computers in the private LAN as well.
I dont want to officialy publish it outside. Is Glassfish the tool for this?
I want to have an endpoint like
https://privatewebservice.net/api/
in the private network that other people can use.
Thanks.
Deploy the rest on your tomcat server on port 80 and in other PCs in the private LANs update host file for privatewebservice.net to point to your PC's IP in the LAN
It needs to run an a servlet container(aka web server). There are many; Jetty, Tomcat, Glassfish etc. That servlet container will start and host your application and make it available via it's port(s).
You can run this process on any physical or virtual machine that is visible on your LAN. You could even use your own machine for this if it's visible to your LAN (barring firewall/network rules blocking the traffic).
To make it available to your LAN from your machine, find your machines internal LAN IP address (run ifconfig on Linux or ipconfig on Windows) and try accessing the app via that IP from your browser. If other machines on your LAN can see your machine, they should be able to access it too via that IP address (likely you will also have an internal DNS name for your machine which would be cleaner to use in case your IP address changes).
Obviously that's only good for development and testing. Generally for internal hosted applications for your company you would have a machine running somewhere that you could deploy the app to to make it accessible by others on your LAN.
It's worth noting that Spring Boot by default comes with an embedded server/servlet container. By default this is Tomcat, but can be changed to say Jetty, via configuration and changing default dependencies in your maven POM file or Gradle build file. The default will be fine unless you have some specific reason to change it.
To use this embedded server, use one of either Maven or Gradle Spring Boot plugins which will provide a set of tasks that can be used to build an executable Java jar file for the application that will run the application on the embedded server, and the application within it. This can then be run with something like java -jar myapp.jar
Technically speaking this would probably be the easiest way to deploy the application. With the only major requirement on the machine you are deploying to being a compatible version of Java. Although I'd recommend wrapping that app in a Docker image that already has Java on it and use Docker to run the docker image as a container. This means your applications' dependencies(including Java and it's specific version) are housed within the docker image/container and also means the machine that will run the app could host many different applications resource efficiently(RAM, CPU etc), with each managing their own dependencies. The machine hosting the app would then just need Docker installed on it, and doesn't get polluted with any other applications dependencies.
follow this step :
1- generate a war file of your Spring-boot project API - see here how to do
2- deploy it on tomcat server see here how to do
3- replace your localhost with your #adress ip (where the server is on and where the project is deployed)

Transferring java application to server

I have created a java application in intellij ide. The application is working well. Now that my application is ready I want to transfer my java application from my machine to server and make it live. I have one server, domain and all the basic rights in the server. Can any one help me figuring out?
I am very new in this part. I dont know anything about hosting my own website and application.
The answer depends on what technology you use. If you use application that needs to be deploy into servlet container you can deploy it onto e.g. Tomcat.
Whatever technology you use you definiately should build your application - it also depends on what building system you use.
E.g.fFor gradle, you can use gradlew build.
For maven: mvn compile.
Tell us more details about technology you use to allow us to help you.
You have a java application (Dropwizard) and first need a server to run it on, which means that it must be a server with java installed or where you can install it yourself.
Then you need to transfer the application "fat" jar (typically you find this in the target directory, depending on how you built it) to this server and start it with java -jar my-application.jar.
Then you need to make sure that the port that the application runs on is available externally. This usually means that you need to have a web server installed (commonly nginx or httpd) which redirects from port 80 or 443 to the port of your application.
Only then is you app "live".

How do I deploy own server (written in Java) on AWS (something like Openshift's DIY)?

Is there some thing similar to "Openshift's DIY" on AWS?
I never use AWS, now need deploy our team's own server(written java) on cloud, and we must use AWS.
This server listening to a custom port, and offering RPC service for client.
I wonder whether it is possible to do DIY on AWS, and how?
And whether that supports go language server?
OpenShift is a PaaS provider. It gives you a Platform with a Java runtime and an application server (Tomcat, Wildfly,...) on which you can deploy your application.
AWS has a lot of different services. EC2 is a IaaS. It gives you an Infrastructure. It starts a virtual machine with the operating system you've choosen, then you install Java and you can deploy your application. Some additional setup has to be done on the virtual network.
AWS Linux server instances can run Go applications just like any other Linux server. You won't get anything like Google App Engine of course. You'll just get a bare Linux server.

glassfish: remotely invoke EJB module with Application Client Container

After fighting passwords on Glassfish 4.x remotely on Ubuntu 14.04 Tahr, I'm ready to proceed to installing my first remote EJB module -- just want make sure I'm on the right path. Going from the Netbeans example Creating and Running an Application Client on the GlassFish Server, How would I make a client for the EJB module which is deployed remotely?
The Netbeans example assumes that Glassfish is running on the localhost. The exact mechanics are unclear to me, as it's not explicitly configured for localhost. Presumably it's implicitly configured for localhost...
I would like to use the ACC to connect to, not a local, but rather a remote Glassfish server. For context, the ACC is:
Introducing the Application Client Container
The Application Client Container (ACC) includes a set of Java classes,
libraries, and other files that are required for and distributed with
Java client programs that execute in their own Java Virtual Machine
(JVM). The ACC manages the execution of Java EE application client
components (application clients), which are used to access a variety
of Java EE services (such as JMS resources, EJB components, web
services, security, and so on.) from a JVM outside the Oracle
GlassFish Server. The ACC communicates with the GlassFish Server using
RMI-IIOP protocol and manages the details of RMI-IIOP communication
using the client ORB that is bundled with it. Compared to other Java
EE containers, the ACC is lightweight. For information about debugging
application clients, see Application Client Debugging.
GlassFish Server Open Source Edition Application Development Guide Release 4.0

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25830149/how-to-package-a-stand-alone-remote-ejb-application-client
From a client application, how does the ACC remotely invoke the EJB module?
There must be a configuration. Does the ACC pick this up from jndi.properties? I can't find much documentation or examples on ACC usage. If the ACC is unsuitable, then, of course, I'll use a different approach. Presumably there's a way to specify a remote Glassfish server for the ACC.
How do you intend to deploy your application?
In my days when i use to develop application clients for the ACC, i used to bundle everything in an EAR (I will still do that, cause it is easier).
Glassfish deploys the artifacts, generates required configurations (You can override configurations in application.xml anyway).
One thing that the ACC takes care is the CORBA properties needed for remote connection.
When you download the client jar from the glassfish admin, you download a java webstart application, that downloads all required libraries as appropriate and a configuration is automatically set from which host (paramount that you set glassfish domain host properly, or this will be an internal IP or localhost) it was downloaded from.

jboss client-server app. concurrent user

I have a client-server application. Client app. is a swing application. Server app. is ejb3 based Java EE application and working on JBoss AS 4.2.1.GA. Client and server are communicating with RMI. I want to monitor, how many user is using the application and active clients that are requesting information from server. Is there any monitoring tool in JBoss AS i can use, for example by using web/jmx console etc.
Thanks,
Deger
Simplest solution is to install the Embedded JOPR solution, it means copy a file on the deploy directory and configure JMX security if needed.
