RE: Java in the database

[Jim Conboy]

Christopher-   Do you have first-hand experience with the performance of Orion, either within iAS or as a stand-alone servlet engine?  The '5x faster' seems to come from an Oracle source, which I suspect is referring to Java stored and executed within Oracle.  I'm not sure whether Orion as a stand-alone product can make the same claim.  Then again I'm a DBA, not an experienced Java developer, and am finding it a bit confusing to wade thru the alphabet soup.   I have a 3rd-party app to install that needs 'any J2EE-compliant' java servlet engine.  I'm looking for something that will provide good scalability at a good price.  The price is right, if Orion scales well then maybe I won't need iAS for this server since I don't need all the other goodies that comes along with it.  If you have any real-world indications of scalability I'd appreciate hearing from you.  Thanks.   Jim >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/26/01 02:51PM >>> Take a look at OrionServer (www.orionserver.com)  at $1,500 / server and 5x faster than Web Logic, I would wonder why people would use others.  And OAS9i uses Orion as the core now.     "Do not criticize someone until you walked a mile in their shoes, that way when you criticize them, you are a mile a way and have their shoes."
