Payara Server is fully compatible with the Jakarta EE 10 specifications and it is accompanied by extensive documentation. While attempting to implement my university project, my goal was to utilize the Jakarta Security 3.0 specification with Auth0. However, I faced challenges while using Wildfly and Glassfish. Fortunately, Payara Server was able to help me quickly run the Jakarta Security 3.0 specification with Auth0 for my university project. I successfully integrated openid-connect in my project thanks to the Payara Server. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
