SpringSource intros tc Server Developer Edition

NEW ORLEANS, USA: SpringSource, a division of VMware, Inc and a provider in Java application infrastructure and management, on Tuesday announced SpringSource tc Server Developer Edition, an Apache Tomcat-compatible platform that gives developers visibility and relevant information for debugging and improving the performance of their Spring applications.

SpringSource tc Server Developer Edition is a free commercial product offering available to developers for download immediately.

Developers would find the lean and powerful combination of Tomcat and Spring a natural fit that keeps their application code free of needless Java EE complexity, said a press release.

The key component of tc Server Developer Edition is the Spring Insight console, a dashboard view of real-time Spring application performance metrics. Without changing their code, developers can use Spring Insight to detect, analyze and diagnose application performance issues right from their desktops.

In addition, it is integrated with the SpringSource Tool Suite, the Eclipse-powered development environment for building Spring-powered enterprise applications, so that developers can isolate the exact section of code that is at issue, and fix the problem quickly.

tc Server Developer Edition is based on SpringSource tc Server, the enterprise version of Apache Tomcat designed to bridge the gap between developers and operations, as it provides the right level of performance visibility to suit the needs of developers creating applications and IT web operations teams managing those applications, added the release.
