|
|I have been using Tomcat for an extra-curricular (contract) job that I have
|had for the past 6 months. I am just at the point of integrating in jBoss
|(good timing, huh?). I have been playin with jBoss on and off for about
|the last 5 months and am impressed with the ease of deployment during the
|dev cycle. The lack of docs has not stopped me from successfully deploying
|a couple entity beans and calling them, inVM, from Tomcat.
|
|My extranet application will serve my customer's 30-100 customers (growth
|permitting). Everything I've seen about jBoss indicates that it is up to
|the task. Hopefully Tomcat is also, although I can probably swap to another
|servlet/jsp engine if I have to.
|
|I would NEVER have been able to sell this company on a $20,000+ enterprise
|web app server. I would be doing this in ASP if it came to that.
|Thankfully, it doesn't come to that.
|
|I use a monolithic app server for my full time dev day job. This
|app server
|provides its own page editor and data managment functionality. Its promise
|of a RAD like environment enticed me, but I now find that same
|functionality
|constraining. IOW, I am sick to death of the limitations of "page" editor,
|and underwhelmed with the advanced data handling.
|
|I am finding the jBoss+tomcat combo much more fun, expressive and powerful.
|This is my first experience with open source and it has been a good one so
|far. The support for jBoss on the mailing lists is better than my
|extremely
|expensive paid support for the other product. And when the responses don't
|come quick enough, I fire up my debugger!
