What is imperative is rock-solid reliability, performance, and simplified development. BEA WebLogic Server keeps your applications and services up and running even when deploying new versions, changing server configurations or failing over within or across data centers. It also provides developers with the tools and technologies they need to expand enterprise applications and services quickly while reducing the amount of repetitive boilerplate code they must write. In production, it provides operations teams with the tools they need; easily surfaced diagnostics information, a GUI administration console and command-line scripting that help keep services up and running. It’s impressively backed by high-availability features to help offset even the most unpredictable outages.
