Long ago, in a galaxy far away (well, OK, ten years ago in Sydney), I published my analysis of what I saw as the major or most useful players in the web application server space.

http://www.woomeranet.com.au/site/bazaar/enterprise

Surprisingly, these two web pages are still the most visited pages on that web site. But it really is ten years old, and we really need a replacement comparison, and I know a lot less than I did ten years ago...

Perhaps somebody could whip up a WebObjects application that would allow lots of people to contribute their knowledge of different platforms. I don't think a Wiki is the best forum for a head-to-head comparison of many platforms on specific issues.

I wasn't really impressed by that article. It sounded like someone complaining about all persistence frameworks at the same time without really understanding even the first one he ever used ... or he wouldn't write:

"For example, SQL is a very dynamic language that you can’t state it with objects. What we see is QUERY, JOIN, WHERE objects in ORM frameworks to re-implement SQL again in object world. We made this mistake in our first ORM framework but corrected in second one."

I didn't read it all that thoroughly as I got the impression that someone is whining about things he did do wrong in the first quarter of the article. I might be wrong about that, but definitely he wasn't able to show his understanding of the difference of all the tools out there. And complaining about all of them at the same time - at least you should be able to show the differences.

Well, that is one thing that people often complain about WO - there is no current comparison to its competitors. It thought it might be interesting to look at this this from a WO in 2008 with Wonder perspective and see how many of his grumbles are still valid (if they ever were).

And we do need a current comparison. It would be great to have some RoR, PHP, .Net, etc. devs and one WO dude in some kind of competition where people will have to complete an given spec. _______________________________________________
