A Java implementation of JSON Web Token (JWT) - RFC 7519. This library requires Java 8 or higher. The last version that supported Java 7 was 3.11.0. The library implements JWT Verification and Signing using several algorithms. The Algorithm defines how a token is signed and verified. It can be instantiated with the raw value of the secret in the case of HMAC algorithms, or the key pairs or KeyProvider in the case of RSA and ECDSA algorithms. Once created, the instance is reusable for token signing and verification operations. When using RSA or ECDSA algorithms and you just need to sign JWTs you can avoid specifying a Public Key by passing a null value. The same can be done with the Private Key when you just need to verify JWTs.

Apache Guacamole is a clientless remote desktop gateway. It supports standard protocols like VNC, RDP, and SSH. We call it clientless because no plugins or client software are required. Thanks to HTML5, once Guacamole is installed on a server, all you need to access your desktops is a web browser.

Zuul is an L7 application gateway that offers many capabilities, including dynamic routing, monitoring, security, resiliency and more. It is used in the backend of the Netflix streaming service as a front door for all requests from devices and web sites. Zuul is ideal for cases like this where API traffic volume and diversity can become overwhelming and cause production issues to arise suddenly and without warning. Zuul has a broad range of filters that enable it to perform multiple functions quickly and apply functionality to services like Netflix. These functions include security authentication, dynamic routing, stress testing, load shedding and more.

Nomulus is a production-grade, open-source domain registry platform used to operate top-level domains (TLDs). It implements the core registry protocols—EPP for registrar interactions, WHOIS/RDAP for public data access—and manages the lifecycle of domain objects, hosts, and contacts. The system is built to scale and to enforce policy: pricing rules, reserved names, premium tiers, grace periods, and automated renewals are modeled explicitly. It integrates with DNS provisioning, data escrow, and billing so you can run a compliant registry end-to-end rather than stitching together separate services. Operators get admin tools for reporting, manual adjustments, and policy configuration, while registrars interact through standards-compliant channels. Nomulus treats registries as serious infrastructure: audited flows, durable storage, and clear extension points for custom policies and TLD-specific behavior.

ZK is an open-source Java framework for building modern web and mobile applications. It enables developers to create rich, interactive UIs using only Java — no JavaScript required.
