ServletExec 1.1 Released
Industry-Leading Features and Platform Support
Alpharetta, Georgia - April 5, 1998 - New Atlanta Communications, LLC is proud to announce the final release of ServletExecTM 1.1 for Microsoft IIS, Netscape FastTrack & Enterprise servers, and all major Mac OS web servers. ServletExec allows these web servers to host servlets based on the JavaTM Servlet API.
Servlets are Java-based alternatives to traditional CGI scripts and proprietary C/C++ web server extensions. Servlets provide better performance and scalability than CGI scripts; they are easier to implement and more reliable than C/C++ extensions. There is growing industry awareness of the compelling advantages of server-side Java and the Java Servlet API.
ServletExec 1.1, available for download and purchase from New Atlanta's web site, implements the complete feature set of the Java Servlet API 1.1 as defined by JDK 1.2 and provides full compatibility with the Java Web Server 1.1, including:
- User Session Tracking
- SingleThreadModel
- Dynamic Page Compilation
- Presentation Templates
- File Upload Servlet
- support for compressed .zip/.jar archives (local and remote)
- configurable VM setting (Windows and Solaris)
- support for the Windows Performance Pack (JITC)
ServletExec 1.1 adds support for the Java Servlet API to the following web servers:
- Microsoft IIS 2.0, 3.0, and 4.0 (Windows NT)
- Microsoft PWS 1.0 and 4.0 (Windows 95)
- Netscape FastTrack & Enterprise 3.0 and 3.5.1 (SPARC Solaris and Windows NT)
- WebSTAR 2.1 AND 3.0 (Mac OS)
- WebTen 1.1.1 and 2.0 (Mac OS)
- AppleShare IP 5.0.3 (Mac OS)
- Quid Pro Quo 2.1 (Mac OS)
"ServletExec 1.1 is the first servlet engine to implement the features of the Java Servlet API 1.1 as defined by JDK 1.2," said Vince Bonfanti, President of New Atlanta Communications. "This, combined with the broadest platform support of any commercial servlet engine, clearly establishes ServletExec as the leading product in its class."
