Difference between Tomee and JBoss

[Jeremyau <ja...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I just read a interesting interview David Blevins did :
http://jaxenter.com/tomee-be-small-be-certified-be-tomcat-38434.html.

In this interview, he said that Tomee is really close to JBoss. 

Before Tomee, I knew that JBoss could support JEE application. Tomcat could
not. So what about now? What is different between these two servers? Why
would I choose one instead of the other one?

Thanks.
Jeremy

>From an architect that switched from Jboss 7.1 to Tomee. I can tell you Tomee
kicks jBoss's ass in every way. Memory, speed, reliability, validation, you
name it.

So if you're debating between jboss and Tomee, don't even think about it.
First be sure your app works fine on Tomee.

That's pretty much this, the idea of TomEE is to build a JEE container on
the well known Tomcat.

The idea of JBoss is to make money on JEE.

The explanation isn't overly complicated :)

First, TomEE is a separate codebase from JBoss. They DO however attempt to
accomplish the same goals, which is provide a JEE compliant container.

Don't confuse Tomcat with TomEE. Tomcat is merely a servlet container (a
very small portion of the JEE spec), whereas TomEE is a full JEE container.

Why would you choose one over the other? That is a very difficult question
to answer.

If are risk adverse, and you want your vendor (RedHat) to support you and
help you solve problems, use JBoss.

If you are concerned about performance and footprint, but can accept that
you'll have to solve problems yourself, go TomEE. (TomEE seems to be _much_
faster than JBoss)

I hope this helps!
