I am a Web Application Developer in Tampa, Florida (by way of Southern California) who has been lucky enough to gain diverse experience, learn from great mentors and find rewarding work over the last 11 years. Today I am on the WRECKINGBALL team, a digital marketing group with some great clients. I also work with some fantastic partners on proprietary software-as-service products.
Fortunately, my diverse experience allows me to keep complex projects simple and see the whole picture without losing track of the details. I love formulating a concept, executing the plan and evaluating and adjusting to ensure success. I thirst for feedback and demand personal growth. I strive to be aware of my weaknesses and improve daily. I most enjoy helping others achieve their full potential, as it also helps me reach my own.
This Web site exists so I can share my experiences in hopes of helping you. If I can help you reach your goals, please, let me know.
Last night, I setup Tomcat monitoring for a Railo application deployed on Tomcat 6. Of course, Tomcat is just a servlet container so these instructions will work for any web-app deployed on Tomcat including Adobe ColdFusion, Spring, Groovy or your custom Web application.
This brief tutorial guides you on setting up JavaMelody which monitors a wealth of data--I've summarized a list at the end of this post.
This month it seems as if Amazon has sent a shockwave through the various developer communities I frequent with their announcement of the Amazon Beanstalk. Amazon selected Apache's Tomcat as the servlet container for their ground breaking product and a lot of people have started to ask about Tomcat. A few months ago I read a book on Tomcat and I recommend it to anyone considering deploying with Tomcat. However, the book does not cover URL Rewriting for search engine safe (SES) links–also called pretty urls.
You can send me email or work with me for digital marketing, web design and application development.
