With Database decoupling, the U2 platform basically becomes an application server.
What would be REALLY cool, is if the U2 application server provided the same functionality as Tomcat, for example. This would allow Http requests to be sent to the U2 server for a response. Allow it to act as a Soap server, etc. etc. etc. Without this ability, I see no reason why anyone would commence new application development on the U2 platform. Since you will always require another application server (Websphere, Tomcat, Bea, Jboss, etc.) to talk to the U2 server, that would in-turn interact with the database. Now, I know IBM are not going to start re-inventing the wheel. I believe this could be fairly easily accomplished (who am I kidding) by embedding some lite form of webSphere in the U2 environment. Or creating a U2 pluggin for webSphere. Just a thought...... Mark. -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users
