Subject: Tomcat vs (other container) compatibility
Hi,
Just wondering if there is anyone who has been or is involved in cross JEE
container work, how compatible are tomcat apps with other commercial apps
such as OC4J, Websphere, BEA and so on? If you don't use tomcat specific
things, does it "just work", I ask because the compatibility issue might
come up at work.
Heres an article from IBM site
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/websphere/library/techarticles/0511_li1/0511_li1.html
I have put quite a few TC servlets onto Glassfish... no problem.
I think in general you will find very little problems moving Tomcat (A
Servlet Container) to one of the above (EJB containers).
Both J2EE but they "different" animals.
Tomcat webapps generally migrate easily to most servers because they all
"stole" tomcat to begin with ;)
.... inside most of this EJB containers you will find something that looks
very much like Tomcat.
So in general no problem...
But amongst EJB servers this is not true... ie if you want to move from say
WebSphere to Jboss, or Spring or Glassfish... then suicide is a very real
possibility ;)
Tomcat is actually one of the few common denominators between these
servers.... once you have applied EJB tools, then portability is an issue.
