Resin Application Server
Resin architecture features high performance, scalability and rigorous reliability that is expected from consumers including CNet, Salesforce and the Toronto Stock Exchange. Resin Professional and its core components are widely deployed in government, commercial and education web sites. Implementation includes Federal emergency programs, high traffic travel online services, banking, mobile applications and online gaming. With over 340,000 deployed hosts worldwide, Resin is easy on the budget and goes well beyond industry performance expectations.
Quercus, one of Resin’s core components, is a pioneering open source architecture for web applications and services where Java and PHP are tightly integrated with each other. PHP applications can choose to use Java libraries and technologies like JMS, EJB, SOA frameworks, Hibernate, and Spring all within one application server. PHP applications running on Quercus are faster, easier to develop, more capable, more secure, and more scalable than any other PHP solution.
Customer Support
Caucho Technology has earned a reputation for supporting its products by a team of engineers devoted to quality customer service and a rapid bug fix and feature request program. Caucho customers include CNet and Salesforce whose mission critical applications rely on Resin application server. Ben Tyler, VP of Engineering for ScanAlert said, “Resin consistently maintains the highest level of security when compared to other J2EE application servers.”
Technical support is handled by Caucho engineers and not outsourced. This means that when you contact Caucho for a support issue, you receive a fast response directly from the engineers who write the code.
We are always looking for bytecode wizards to join our team and work on performance, compilers and well-organized code.
