Für Unternehmen ist es unerlässlich sicherzustellen, dass ihre Systeme immer online sind. Weltweit wird daran gearbeitet so nah wie möglich an das "Verfügbarkeits Nirvana" von 99,9999 Prozent zu gelangen. Load...

  In this episode I'm talking probably one last time to James Falkner about upcoming changes... James was the first guest on Radio Liferay (back in episode 1 - as well as others) and now - at least temporarily until episode 56 is published - will be the last. We're talking about upcoming changes, and sadly it looks like this will be his last appearance on this program.  ...

Over the last 5 years if there's anything I've learned it's that the only thing that doesn't change is change itself. I've been blessed to have been a part of many exciting changes at Liferay and our community, seeing it grow from 80 to almost 600 employees, and from 20k to 150k community members, and being given the chance to: Join an awesome company and work with...

I hate when I have to spend time deploying changes in my Java classes. I wanted to know if there was a way of deploying them very fast. So I found out about Hotswap Agent and DCEVM and decided to give them a shot. So far, they meet my expectations. They get the job done fast... it seems instant! I would encourage anyone developing in Liferay to give it a try, and warn you that you...

In this post I want to share how you can use Maven to do 2 important things in a Liferay project: patching and creating a deploy package.   While this way of patching is a very powerful way to modify Liferay in an automated way (no manual WAR/JAR patching) you should use it as sparingly as possible. If possible you should always try to use more...

Back in October when we first introduced Launchpad Developer Preview, we put together a very simple documentation page for users. After seeing how people were interacting with the product we realized we needed a more robust structure. We pushed tons of improvements but still one of the challenges for every documentation is how easy people can find the content they are looking for....

Starting from 2014, we have begun our relationship with the Ai Na Volunteer Center and we are so glad to see that many of our colleagues have participated in the activities held by Ai Na and more importantly, bettered themselves through the communication with the autism children and teenagers.

How can you access custom classes within a JSP hook? Simple answer: you can't. Period. JSPs in a hook are running in the portal classloader, while your custom classes are running in the hook context classloader. So the JSP in the portal classloader does not know about your custom classes. In 2013 Kan Zhang wrote a blog post about how to use custom classes in a JSP hook....

Content Friendly URL? This is one of those tidbits you get served on a platter if you're lucky enough to attend a Liferay training session. Anyway, content friendly url may not be the legit term, but what I'm referring to is a URL crafted using a Journal Article's urlTitle attribute, which is stored in every journalarticle record btw.  ...
