Hi all,
i have currently an dicussion going on about creating
a 3/Multi Tier Enterprise Application which will
have one Webbased Client and one Standalone Client.
The main aim is the Webbased Client.
The problem is there are some workers which want to
use .NET and some who want to use J2EE.
I dont want to start something like a flame war here.
I just want to find out if we could use the Tomcat
server and/or other Open Source Projects to
develop our Application because i dont want
to go the .NET way.
The application would be a middle to big size
CRM system.
So what we will need is an Application Server which
can handle EJB's. Even too it should be scalable in a way
that you can split parts of your application about
several servers which are working together in a network
environment.
As far as i have found out until now Tomcat can't do
that things. Some people told me that Tomcat only implements
some J2EE standards.
I havent found a site on apache.org (Jakarta Side) that
explains what Tomcat can do and what it cant.
Anybody has one?
Can Tomcat work together with other Applications
that integrate the functions that Tomcat doesnt have
but are needed for J2EE Applications?
So as far as i can see now. Tomcat is good for some
mainly Webbased applications which are using Servlets
but i cant see in which productive environments it is
used. Could anybody tell me in what kind of projects
you did use it?
And now there is another question which doesnt really
belong to this Mailinglist. But if i am here ... =)
So if Tomcat cant be used to create Enterprise Applications
which are mostly using EJB's and should be scalable on the server
side what other ways are there. I've heard about other
Open Source J2EE Application Servers and then there are the
commercial Servers like Websphere and so on.
I've surley read books about J2EE but none of them didnt
give much information about the diffrent application servers
for J2EE. So i know some stuff about programming J2EE applications
but not much about how to implement them on the server side.
Any suggestions on that?
Thank you for reading my stuff and if you have any idea about
my questions any answer would be highly appreciated.
Thanks and Greetings,
G. Balandres
