Tomcat 5 can be integrated with a connection pool from Apache, but is that connection pool seemlessly integrated with the Transaction Manager? My bet that it isn't. Our connection pooling also have a lot of debug and monitoring features as well.

We don't have good marketing materials do we. :( Thanks for calling my attention to this.

Thank you for your response, and for so nicely summarizing the pages and
pages I've been trying to read online.   We already have a transaction
monitor, but are only beginning to think about clustering and connection
pooling, both of which can be implemented using Tomcat 5.  I know nothing
about JMX, but will look into it now that you've mentioned it.  Any links to
overviews, summaries, etc. about any part of JBoss would be greatly
appreciated.

Subject: Re: [JBoss-user] Why use JBOSS?




* Complete production and development support. JBoss has the lead Tomcat
developer on board.
* Allow future seamless extension to EJB container. Jboss provides
unified configuration for both containers.
* HTTP session replication (clustering, which is very seemless)
* Better hot deployment
* JMX statistics and monitoring
* Connection pooling
* JAAS security
* Pluggable security domains

With very little work, you can get JBoss down to any minimal
configuration that doesn't include EJB and other stuff that comes with
JBoss.

In my experience, any truly complex application needs a transaction
manager, which JBoss has as well, that is seemlessly integrated with our
connection pooling.

We are currently using tomcat, apache, and mysql to successfully
deploy a fairly complex application and we have no cause for
complaints.  Since my knowledge of jboss consists mostly of what I was
able to obtain from browsing the jboss website, can anyone tell me
what (and if) we can gain by using jboss?

Thank you,
MC
