The OpenEJB project was started by David Blevins in 1999 as an open source implementation of the Enterprise JavaBeans specification. Blevins continued to develop OpenEJB and integrate components of this project with Apache Geronimo.

A beta version of TomEE was releases in October 2011, and the first production-ready version was shipped in April 2012.
