Fabric3 provides both a RESTful management framework and access to runtime and application components via JMX.
The RESTful management resource framework (MRF) exposes the domain, zones, runtimes, runtime components and application components as a hyperlink-based set of resources. The MRF also supports cluster change replication. This allows a resource modification (e.g. POST, PUT, or DELETE) to be made against a single URL and have it replicated to all runtimes in a zone. Since the MRF uses HTTP and JSON as its data format, it is possible to build powerful management applications for Fabric3 using a variety of technologies and programming languages.
