Duh... get off your high horse, will ya? "Java/Oracle-dominated IT
shop" => "Oracle is already there". "I would consider using the same
setup for a normal project" => "it actually works". Commercial
close-sourced middleware is a Bad Thing (TM), but it helps to know
what works and what doesn't. JRuby/Rails on OAS does.

It also has a couple of particularly useful features: in-memory
session clustering that doesn't have a single point of failure, and
ESI caching.

I've heard the same thing about it, but it doesn't match my experience.

If that is true, it has interesting implications for the original
poster. As in "if you find out that FreeTDS/ODBC is the bottleneck,
try running your app under JRuby on Windows".
