We support everything Java - if it runs on a Java web-server at your office, home or previous hosting company, it will run here - especially if you are running it locally on Tomcat, TomEE, Glassfish or JBoss.
You will need to set your database details in your configuration files (eg: hibernate/context) and a filesystem path if your application uses one. Deploy to Metawerx and enjoy your new online presence! If there are any problems deploying your application, we are more than happy to help you get started. We can also help you upgrade to the latest versions of Java and Tomcat, or put your site on any older version if you prefer.
The list below is just an example of some of the frameworks we've worked with. If you still aren't sure, simply contact us for help.
You will notice that you can also run JavaScript (ie: Node.js apps), CFML, Groovy, Clojure and Rails apps on top of Tomcat or TomEE at Metawerx!

We can run it! - If it runs on a Java VM or container (ie: Tomcat, TomEE, GlassFish, JBoss), it will run here (we're the Java Hosting specialists) - If you are wondering about a specific application, just contact us! |
