  Eclipse GlassFish is the open-source reference implementation of the
  Jakarta EE platform, formerly owned by Sun/Oracle and now stewarded by
  the Eclipse Foundation. GlassFish is a lightweight Java application server
  that ships a full Jakarta EE runtime (Servlet, JAX-RS, CDI, JPA, EJB,
  WebSocket, JMS, Concurrency, etc.) and exposes a built-in REST management
  API on the DAS (Domain Administration Server) for administering domains,
  applications, resources, monitoring data, and configuration. The
  management API is part of the server itself rather than a public hosted
  service.
