Introducing WebSphere Application Server Feature Packs
IBM is simplifying the way you consume WebSphere Application Server with Feature Packs. In order to balance our customers’ desire for less frequent releases while still making available the latest standards to our customers who need them, IBM has introduced Feature Packs. With Feature Packs, customers can selectively take advantage of new standards and features while maintaining a more stable internal release cycle. IBM offers Feature Packs generally available or available in either open alpha, beta or technology preview.
With the release of WebSphere Application Server V8, there is no need to download each of the previous individual feature packs. Each are now included in the V8 new release. There are two new feature packs available now for download that are available for V8 the WebSphere Application Server Feature Pack for Web 2.0 and Mobile and WebSphere Application Server Feature Pack for Dynamic Scripting.
