This has nothing to do with servlets, but...
an Oracle JSP (Java Stored Procedure), not to be confused with the common
JSP (Java Server Pages).
Currently the proc/con is not weighted in any one direction too heavily, and
speed is not really in the equation as both teams tend to share information
back and forth quite a bit.
JSP:
Pro: It's just JAVA for your programmers, so lots of resources
JAVA is open, PL/SQL is Oracle's ADA variant, and is proprietary
JAVA (all the rest of it, certification, etc)
Con: To use it in SQL you have to wrap it in PL/SQL anyways.
No access to JNI
Code can be extracted and reverse engineered fairly easily
PL/SQL
Pro: If you're an Oracle shop, you already have PL/SQL programmers
Better cursor management (IMHO)
Access to external C or other Libraries that can be wrapped in C
PL/SQL Wrap utility, makes reverse engineering of code very, very
difficult
Con: Proprietary, and less skilled folks being churned out of schools than
for JAVA
Now, from a physical multi-tier approach, PL/SQL isn't in that ballgame at
all.
