I'm with both Tim and Dossy here. There's a bit market for EJBs and
there's a lot that can be done in AOLserver itself.
I am curious: how do EJB's handle the ACID test? Is the performance
penalty a reasonable cost for those portions of your project that have ACID
requirements? Is the EJB/DB architecture more akin to a AOLserver as
application server/DB solution than the typical AOLserver as web server/DB
solution described so well in WTR? If so, does what can we learn/steal
from EJBs to make the AOLserver environment more productive, more
efficient, more powerful, or just more compatible?
