"Our platform is not about typical CRUD. We do not have a html front-end for example. Or a relational db. We use Mongodb.
We are also concerned about the runtime performance of Grails as well as how long it takes to startup in Jetty." I don't know Grails very well, but I am certain that you are not forced into a CRUD model. Check this out: http://grails.org/plugin/mongodb And of course run this search: https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ix=seb&ie=UTF-8&ion=1#hl=en&output=search&sclient=psy-ab&q=grails%20mongo&oq=&aq=&aqi=&aql=&gs_sm=&gs_upl=&gs_l=&pbx=1&fp=d6dedd7a89ce7f98&ix=seb&ion=1&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_qf.,cf.osb&biw=1442&bih=1018 My other question is: why do you think that the web stack is going to be your bottleneck? It usually isn't. And don't forget that Grails largely wraps up spring (which is written in java). But that all being said: check out the Play framework. If you prefer Java, it's your best bet IMO. http://www.playframework.org/modules/mongo -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
