Allaire Kawa

Allaire Kawa was an integrated development environment (IDE) that was developed by Tek-Tools, and then Allaire Corporation, for developing, testing, and deploying server-side Java applications.

Product history
Kawa was created by Tek-Tools and complemented Allaire's JRun Java application server. On November 6, 2000, Allaire announced that it had acquired Kawa and its development team from Tek-Tools for US$9 million.

After Allaire itself had been absorbed by Macromedia in a merger in March 2001, Macromedia briefly continued to support Kawa Professional and Enterprise editions, but discontinued sales by October 31, 2001.
