Release Highlights

This release brings us back in line with GlassFish 4.1.1, with the benefit of all our additional fixes and enhancements from our previous releases, as well as a few more. Of particular interest in this release:

  • Up to date with GlassFish 4.1.1.

  • Removal of the dependency on .NET Framework 3.5, allowing Payara to be used with .NET Framework 4.

  • The payaradomain domain will now use an embedded Derby database for its default datasources (domain1 is unchanged to retain drop-in replacement viability).

  • You can now set DISABLED as a JMS Broker type, allowing you to disable the OpenMQ Broker.

  • Setting size-based log rotation to 0 will now turn it off.

In line with our naming strategy, our version number has also been extended for this release to reflect the fact that we are up to date with GlassFish 4.1.1.
