How Do I Add Containers?

Eclipse GlassFish has a highly modular architecture that enables you to add new types of containers that handle many application types, not just Jakarta EE. Eclipse GlassFish defines a service provider interface (SPI), which container developers implement. The Eclipse GlassFish framework then invokes the container’s implementation of the SPI to detect, deploy, and manage applications of the new type.

For more information, see "Adding Container Capabilities" in Eclipse GlassFish Add-On Component Development Guide.
