Hi Middleware Company,
<personal-opinion>
Before you go around "educating" "developers and managers" about
application servers. I think you should provide a more comprehensive list of
ejb servers. I always thought that to help a person make the _right_
decision it was best to provide them with all the facts. My motto: If you
are going to do it do it right.
Having said that I do not know if this is really a good idea. I mean would
you believe half the things posted on the web. I tend to more skeptical of
claims without any serious evidence. To me this is just like basing your
personal investment decisions on some post on a yahoo message board.
I have a client working with a twisted product that has market dominance and
for the life of me I cannot understand why. The software has just broken all
the hearts of the clients developers. Its view regarding scalability and
load balancing is to buy more (and I mean more) hardware. I recently heard
an application server vendor touting a similar architecture/solution though
not so fine grain.

Subject: cash prizes for posting application server reviews on
TheServerSide.com
Hi everyone,
TheServerSide.com, a free EJB/J2EE community site has put together
an
application server reviews repository. Many people on this list have been
asking for something like this for a long time, so we hope that developers
like yourselves will contribute to this repository as well as use it to
learn more about other application servers.
We realize that posting a review of an application server is no easy
task,
so we have set up a weekly contest to encourage people to post reviews.
Starting this week, the two best reviews posted every week will receive a
cash prize of $100.
We feek that the community needs real world experiences with
application
servers, not marketing hype or flamebait. Let us know what you think about
an app. server feature by feature, how easy it is to work with, how good
their tech support is, etc. Your comments will be read by many other
developers / managers and will help educate people about application
servers. TheServerSide.com will not profit from these reviews, but we are
hoping that the community will.
The URL is http://www.TheServerSide.com
take care,
Floyd Marinescu
