Subject: Servlet Container Debate
Gentlemen;
We are considering upgrading our servlet container to one that supports
the 2.3 servlet api and jsp 1.2 api (Yes, I know we are in the dark
ages!). We are running JRun 3.1 in production and are running our
applications on a development server (JRun 4.0) with 128 bit ssl
encryption implemented, and the application server takes about 7 -10
minutes to come back after a restart. I don't think this will be
tolerated on a production server. I also have some concern that there
will be no $$ for training on a new servlet container, so I'll be on my own to
implement, administer and support a much more sophisticated container than
what I am working with now.
I know we have beat the IDE issue to death, but I don't believe we have
had the servlet container debate. Could I ask this esteemed group to
weigh in on issues like support, ease of implementation, compliance with J2EE
specification, scalability and reliability for whatever your favorite happens
to be? We run Win 2k on our servlet container, which runs stand alone
(not connected to iis) with a sqlserver 2000 backend.
Thanks;
John Olmstead
