I agree that it would be good to have some reference sites,
where OJB is used in production. However, I suppose many
would feel like me in this matter: I have no idea how our client
(the owner of the site) would feel about me posting a link,
and I hesitate to ask because on the one hand it does not
seem important enough and on the other hand no one could
actually see that OJB is used behind the curtains !
It is a Dutch language site anyway (a regional events site
with several thematic subsites).
So yes, we have made a quite useful mediumsized production website
based on OJB (with JBoss, Jakarta Jetspeed, Jakarta Turbine
and Jakarta Jelly, three Tomcats, OpenSymhony OSCache and for
the database MSSQL server, all running on Win2000.)
It is attracting between 600 and 9000 (peak) users a day,
and runs smoothly for extended periods of time.
And no, I can not actually show you the wonders of the editorial
interface of the content management system, because it is
hidden behind a firewall.
I feel OJB is quite useful in production, but you certainly
have to know what you are doing and what you are trying
to achieve with it. And there have been some tricky aspects,
but these could be solved by simple workarounds and small hacks.
The main thing about OJB is that AFAIK it has an overall clean
design, and it far beats making your own database abstraction
layer and object/relational mapper. We certainly do not use all
of it, only the Persistence Broker parts, so there was less to
learn. We love the virtual proxy and collection proxy concepts,
the criteria objects for building queries, and the nice little
hidden features that you find when you start to learn the system.
So many thanks to Thomas and the rest of the team for this
inspiring piece of work, and their ongoing interest.
Cheers,
Theo Niemeijer
