Book Description

Up until now, Spring Framework has had to rely on third party open and closed source deployment tools and application servers like BEA WebLogic, IBM WebSphere, Red Hat JBoss and more. Well, not any more. Spring has finally developed its own deployment tool, SpringSource dm Server.

Pro SpringSource dm Server by Gary Mak is one of the first booksthat cover Spring’s new deployment tool and enterprise Java application server. Spring is still a hot area for today’s Java programmer and developer.

This review is from: Pro SpringSource dm Server(TM) (Expert's Voice in Open Source) (Paperback)
This book provides a good introduction to Spring dm Server 2.0. The only thing is that Spring dm Server 2.0 isn't released yet and still changing, not just in content but also in deployment and configuration as well. Good book but it will lose some of its accuracy as time goes on.

2.0 out of 5 stars Already inaccurate and only half on-topic book about product not released yet, November 15, 2009
By 
Andrey Ivanov (St.Petersburg, Russia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Pro SpringSource dm Server(TM) (Expert's Voice in Open Source) (Paperback)
This book is supposed to be about dmServer, but first time you will read anything about dmServer is chapter 3. First 2 chapters are about OSGI and Spring Dynamic Modules, but they takes too much out of this not so big book for introductory chapters, especially with respect to the fact that authors recommends another Apress books specifically about this thematic more than once. Add to this full-page screenshots of 90% empty dialogs for pretty obvious tasks and you would get a book which has very few to say on-topic.
Worse even, the book is very inaccurate. The cover says "Covers SpringSource dmServer 2" but as previous reviewer mentioned this is product under development. Some screenshots shows authors used M2 version and now at M6 stage the book is *already* outdated. For example, the whole chapter 4 is NOT about dmServer 2.0 anymore - the admin console has been changed, provisioning repository structure has been changed, etc. So, this particular chapter is pretty confusing until you install 1.0.2 version of dmServer and see where all those screenshots are from.
All in all this book has 2 stars as the only book about dmServer on the market. Authors where brave enough and fast enough to release is even before the product it is about is released. As soon as dmServer 2.0 is finally released and more books on topic are release, there will be absolutely no reason to spend money for this one.
