The application management lifecycle can be difficult to
manage, but JBoss ON enables easy management of an
enterprise application environment. Application develop-
ers, administrators, and operations managers deal with
complexity when working with multi-tier applications that
run on web servers, application servers, and enterprise
service bus. With JBoss ON they can do consistent applica-
tion deployments and configurations that result in a more
secure environment and better application performance.
Get visibility into your application's health and generate
diagnostic and historical data that drives improvements or
resolves technical issues. And JBoss ON's open standards
support and plug-in framework means that your applica-
tion management platform is extensible, customizable, and
future-proofed. JBoss ON delivers operational depend-
ability and manageability with the reduced costs of open
source. With JBoss ON’s plug-in architecture, JBoss ON
plug-in packs for EAP, SOA-P, and EWS can be individually
added to the JBoss ON management server to control and
manage one or all application tiers from a single JBoss ON
console.

stopping, or re-starting applications or servers--all through
the same console.
With JBoss ON, you can:
