I've a couple of questions for you regarding OJB usages:

1. Do you use P-API or ODMG-API in these production environments? 
2. What is the max number of users log on at one time?  
3. If possible can you give us the hardware/setup configuration?

Thanks

Hi Haytham,

We're using OJB in two production applications at the Northwest Alliance
for Computational Science and Engineering (NACSE).  One is a data mining
toolset, and the other is a massive National Science Foundation project
that involves huge amounts of data, and about 20 or 25 universities and
research groups like mine.

In fact, I've begun making OJB sort of a de-facto standard for NACSE
java/database development.  I've thrown out EJB's for the most part and
I've tried JDO from Castor, but I'm sticking with OJB. Maybe we'll
reconsider JDO when the OJB implementation is more complete.
