advocacy: J2EE: no longer required - Loosely Coupled weblog, Nov
18th 2004 10:20am
For those seeking mod_perl advocacy bits. Spotted this on /.org today:
http://www.looselycoupled.com/blog/lc00aa00074.html
That entry mainly suggests LAMP to scale better than J2EE using a grid of
cheap PCs, à là Google/Amazon style.
It links to the detailed articles:

I'm all for picking on bloated J2EE app servers, but this is a pretty
silly article. I'm not going to get too far into it here, but I think
I'll write something about it on my use.perl.org journal. The main
problem with the "ActiveGrid" system this company is promoting is that
scaling web apps to multiple machines is a solved problem, at least in
terms of basic load-balancing and failover stuff. The hard part is
shared data, which they are not addressing from what I can see.

right so now I learned something again, but how does J2EE relate with
apache + mod_perl?? are they competitors?
