Re: [Wicket-user] Enterprise application using Wicket
Many thanks for all replies. This will help me get the decision makesr to give Wicket a try.

Re: [Wicket-user] Enterprise application using Wicket
Dave, Wicket has built-in hooks to facilitate its use in large, multi-server configurations where load balancing and other scalability considerations are required. You are on pretty solid ground. I cannot speak from experience about how Wicket handles more than 10 or 20 concurrent connections. However, if my applications start to bottleneck when I scale to hundreds of users, I'm confident it will be the result of coding decisions I've made and not those of wicket developers. If you'd like to build a brand new framework and then build your application using it, continue with JSP. However, if you'd like to use a framework where people that understand how web applications work have already done most of the work for you, consider using Wicket. My personal experience with JSP is that an order of magnitude more code in your application yields you an order of magnitude less functionality than you'd have in a much shorter time-frame writing the same application using Wicket. You probably won't be able to show management this email thread and have them re-direct the project toward Wicket use. However, take a few hours and write the same thing it's taking the JSP people weeks to deliver and they'll be sold. This is something about which I can speak from experience. Good luck! --Kurt Vincent Jenks wrote: What argument *couldn't* be made? Comparing JSP and Wicket is like night and day...JSP is antiquated technology in comparison.

JSP is not included, but here: http://www.virtuas.com/articles/webframework-sweetspots.html is a discussion that might help.
