servlet api question ?
What are the advantages or the reason for the popularity of
servlet api vis-a-vis the web server specific api ?
Say Netscape server or IIS server also have their own
specific api's as well where one could write server side
code. But the servlet api is so popular and wide spread and
one could argue that java sdk is free but then companies buy
the third party j2ee servers like websphere or weblogic. (why
?? what is the real reason or advantages of servlet api

Posted by George Sexton <gs...@mhsoftware.com>.
I have customers running my software on
WebSphere
WebLogic
Orion/Oracle 9iAS
Tomcat
Resin
Jrun
With no specific modifications for any specific product. If you want to sell
into an enterprise market, the ability to run on various enterprise servers
is a winner.
