“The Caucho® Resin application server is at the core of our product’s infrastructure, and due to its stability and reliability we’ve been able to achieve phenomenal uptime and performance for our Enterprise SaaS project portfolio management (PPM) software. While most companies with SaaS products focus primarily on small-to-midsize businesses, PowerSteering is used by global enterprises and government organizations with large, worldwide deployments. We could not serve the needs of such demanding, geographically diverse users without the cost effective, feature rich, and scalable solution that Caucho® provides.”

Introducing a new deployment model in Resin 4.0.2 based on GIT
Resin 4.0.2 offers an entirely new way of thinking about application deployment based on a GIT repository model. Application developers are familiar with source control during development, so we’ve extended this model to deployment as well. By using the GIT repository structure, you will be able to deploy applications to Resin 4.0.2 in a distributed way throughout your cluster. Once your application is deployed you can use GIT to manage versions, upgrading and rolling back without disturbing users. The GIT features in Resin 4.0.2 also allow deploying applications in different stages so you can check your application in a live environment before full production rollout.
Read more about these upcoming features on our blog.

Resin 4.0.2 offers Early Access implementation of Servlet 3.0
Resin 4.0 introduced Early Access Servlet 3.0 support. For version 4.0.2, look for added features including annotations, file upload, and asynchronous Servlets to the implementation. Servlet 3.0 introduces annotations that make deploying Servlets, Filters and Listeners of all types easier. This short tutorial opens with the introduction of annotations of javax.servlet.annotation package, shows how to use WebListener, WebServlet, WebFilter and WebInitParam annotations and closes with an example demonstrating a use of IOC (javax.inject package) in a Servlet.
