Lomboz is an open source Eclipse plug-in for the J2EE development environment. It has means to develop, test, profile and deploy Web, Web services, Java, J2EE and EJB applications. Lomboz supports the most J2EE standard application server runtimes, and supports most popular open source runtimes such as JOnAS. Same as JOnAS, Lomboz is hosted and developed by the OW2 Consortium (the development group calls themselves "eteration"). It is distributed under GNU Lesser General Public License.

In July 2006's this system was sufficiently convenient for the developer, familiar with all main concepts, features and methods of the J2EE platform. It is, however, not oriented to the student who would want to start developing J2EE applications without reading documentation. Lomboz is packaged, integrated and dependent on many other open source Eclipse packages for J2EE development.

Lomboz provides:
# Wizards for creating and assembling J2EE modules.
# JSP editor and code assistant.
# Support for JBoss, WebLogic, Apache Tomcat, JOnAS and JRun.
# EJB code generators based on XDoclet.
# Web Services code generators based on Apache Axis.
