Best application servers: weblogiv and websphere?

Hi I have heard that if I want to do JSP on NT with IIS the most widely adopted middleware is weblogic and websphere is this true? Which is the most expensive and which is the easiest for a beginner to get to grips with?

If you are a beginner with JSPs and Servlets, but want to work with the J2EE component model strictly for developer purpose, have a look at Reisen, JBoss, JRun (dev edition), and Tomcat. My preferred container is Tomcat but running with Apache rather than IIS. I've spent one too many times reimaging drives after virus fiascos. If you want to get grips with the two mentioned, check their web sites... the documentation is quite vast.

  • Best application servers?

    hi
    i m new to j2ee and ejb can some one tell me that which are the best Application server. other than jboss and java application server (from sun)?
    thanx alot in advance

    Best = BEA WebLogic
    Worst = IBM WebSphere
    I hear good things about JBoss too, and since it's
    free (unlike the above 2) it's very attractive, SUN AS is nice, too. You can use it free of charge and unlike JBoss it has a nice GUI console and free documentation.

  • ADF Rich Faces with Spring WebFlow in other application servers

    I am evaluating various JSF based UI technologies (Tomahawk, Tobago, Trinidad, RichFaces, IceFaces, ADF Faces) and after having a look at demos came to conclusion that ADF Faces is quite better than rest. But i have a few concerns for ADF Faces:
    1. How well it integrates with Spring WebFlow? Does it provide any AJAX handlers for spring (spring provides AJAX handlers for RichFaces out of the box)? If Yes then is there any documentation for that?
    2. Can it integrate with other frameworks like RichFaces? If Yes then is there any documentation for that?
    3. Can it work with other application servers like JBoss, Websphere, etc? If Yes then is there any documentation for that?

    1. How well it integrates with Spring WebFlow? Does it provide any AJAX handlers for spring (spring provides AJAX handlers for RichFaces out of the box? If Yes then is there any documentation for that?
    --> Spring Web flow is not supported. No ajax handlers for spring. But you do have built in ajax functionality.
    2. Can it integrate with other frameworks like RichFaces? If Yes then is there any documentation for that?
    --> Yes can be integrated but not supported hence no documentation.
    3. Can it work with other application servers like JBoss, Websphere, etc? If Yes then is there any documentation for that?
    --> Technically it can. WebSphere was supported as of ADF 10g. When 11g was released it was supported but now it might be. There are various posts in the forum on tomcat & jboss integration. Though not easy can be achieved.
    Another thing to note is ADF Faces is not open source. You get it bundled with Weblogic App server. Where as all other component libraries you mentioned are open source.

  • Installing BI 4.1 with Netweaver Web Application Servers : Windows/HP-UX

    Hello,
    We are about to install SAP BI 4.1 SP3, with Netweaver as Web Application Servers.
    And yes, according to the Product Availability Matrix HP-UX is definitely not a supported platform .
    The problem is that our company like many others have invested huge amount of money in their HP-UX infrastructure,
    and intend to reuse it, as long as it is supported by SAP.
    OK it is very confusing, let me clarify
    After discussing with other SAP customers facing the same dilemma :
    We intend to :
    * Install the Oracle Database (hosting CMS and Audit schema) on HP-UX ( The PAM only says that the Database Connector is not Supported on HP-UX)
    * Install BI.4 Server Components Application/Intelligence layer on Windows as clearly indicated in the PAM
    * Install Netweaver Application Servers on ...HP-UX if supported by SAP ?  I have some problems reading the PAM regarding this last point
    The PAM seems to indiccate that HP-UX is not supported as a platform for NEtweaver,
    but then on the next page it says :
    (*3) SAP NetWeaver is supported with SAP JVM on all supported operating systems
    What does that mean ???
    SAP Netweaver/SAP JVM is supported on HP-UX
    Does that mean that we could install NEtweaver JAva Stacks on HP-UX ?
    Thanks and Regards

    Hello,
    We just received SAP Support  answer, Deploying BI4 Applications on Netweaver/HP-UX
    is ... SUPPORTED !
    "Thank you very much for your time on call today.
    --As discussed you already have installed SAP NetWeaver Java
    Application Server on HP-UX Operating System.
    --Now want to deploy BOE Web Applications (Ex- CMC, BI Launchpad) on
    top of this.
    --Yes, it is supported to deploy BI Web Applications on SAP NetWeaver
    Java Application Server on HP-UX Operating System."

  • Weblogic and Websphere communication!!

    Hi Friends,
    I have an EJB HelloWorld deployed on both servers(Weblogic and Websphere) and these beens are accessible easily from their respective client servlets, which is the easy part.
    Now what I want to try is access the bean's methods on Weblogic server from a bean on Websphere server and vice versa. This is where I want some ideas from the gurus please.
    e.g. hello() method of the EJB (HelloWeblogic) in Weblogic server prints the message "Hello from Weblogic" and the hello() method of the EJB (HelloWebsphere) in Websphere server prints the message "Hello from Websphere". Now I want to know what do I need to do so that I am able to execute hello() of the HelloWeblogic EJB, from HelloWebsphere EJB and vice versa.
    I am also new to EJB, but I think I am making my way slowly.
    Any help/ideas/code samples would be really appreciated.
    Please feel free to ask any questions.
    Regards
    Rajeev

    As far as I can see the standard way would be to lookup
    the ejbs-home in the others JNDI context. After that proceed
    as you are used to.
    Troubles (or some unlikely behaviours) could occur if your beans are
    served by the same interfaces.
    But Dynamic Stub loading via RMI should prevent you from any problems with non existing stub/skels, etc.
    You could only run into problems when stub/skel-implementation-classes where named equally (by full qualifier) in both app-servers. This should never happen. (weblogic.SomeWLStubClass != ...websphere...SomeStubClass)
    Read RMI-Specification for further details on dynamic class-loading in
    the RMI process:
    http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/docs/guide/rmi/spec/rmi-arch.doc.html
    or j2ee-tutorial on how to resolve JNDI-Contexts.

  • Regarding Application Servers

    Hi,
    i need to know the basic dfference between the application Servers,
    JBOSS and Weblogic
    Which one is feasible for Enterprise applications and how ?

    How about giving a try to Sun's AppServer? It has all features enterprise might need and it is absolutely free!

  • I am a new mac user and I switch to mac due to the graphics that it brings. I do website in pc and I heard iweb is the best.NOW i heard that iweb will be discontinue. so what is the best application there for website using MAC OSX lion?

    I am a new mac user and I switch to mac due to the graphics that it brings. I do website in pc and I heard iweb is the best.NOW i heard that iweb will be discontinue. so what is the best application there for website using MAC OSX lion?

    It is now confirmed  that iWeb, and iDVD, has been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
    On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. However, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
    Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ MobileMe Gallery
    All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
    I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken.  If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
    There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
    Click to view full size
    However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
    It now appears that the iLife suite of applications offered on disc is now a discontinued product and the remaining supported iApps will only be available thru the App Store from now on. However, the iLife 11 boxed version that is still available at the online Apple Store (Store button at the top of the page) and those still on the shelves of retailers will include iWeb and iDVD. Those two apps were listed in small, gray text on the iLife 11 box that I bought.
    Personally, if I didn't already have a copy I would purchase one to have it for reinstallation purposes if ever needed.
    This might be of some interest to you at this time: Life After MobileMe.

  • Advantages of using a webserver inbetween a load balancer and application servers

    I am building out a new weblogic domain.
    I am wondering which one of these configuration to go with:
    1. Load balancer > weblogic servers
    2. Load balancer > web server > weblogic servers
    Could someone tell me what are the specific advantages of having web servers inbetween a load balancer and application servers (besides caching static data content and acting as a proxy)?
    Thanks in advance
    Srini

    Other than hosting the static content, nothing much really.   We have our load balancer go straight to WL for applications without static content and route to web server if there is static content.   Easy enough to do it both ways, best of both worlds.

  • Building a best practice web application using ColdFusion and Jave EE

    I've been tasked with rewriting a software using ColdFusion.  I cannot seem to find a lot of information on best practice development in ColdFusion.  I am an experience Java developer who has never used ColdFusion before.  I want to build this application using a synergy of ColdFusion and Java EE technologies.  Can someone recommend me a book that outlines how to developer in ColdFusion?  Ideally this book assumes the reader is an experienced developer with no exposure to ColdFusion.  Ideally the methods outlined in the book are still "best practice" methods.

    Hello Friends,
    I am also in the same situation.
    I am a building a new web application using JSF and AJAX.
    Requirement is I need to use IBM version of DOJO and JSF but I need to develop the whole application using Eclipse 3.3,2 and Tomcat 5.5.
    With IBM version of DOJO and JSF, will Eclipse and Tomcat help to speed up the development or do you suggest me to go for Rational Application Developer and WebSphere Application Server.
    If I need to go with RAD and WAS, then I am new to RAD and WAS, is it easy to use RAD and WAS for this kind of application and implement web applicaiton fast.
    Any feedback will be great help.Those don't sound like requirements of the system to me. They sound more like someone wants to improve their CV/resume
    From what I've read recently, if it's just fast you want, look at Ruby on Rails

  • J2EE APPLICATION ON OAS10G AND J2EE APPLICATION ON IBM Websphere

    Hi All,
    As you all know that there are many application servers in the market for deploying the application so I just want to know why we all choose Oracle Application Server 10g for deploying J2ee application and why some choose IBM Websphere for deploying J2ee application. Is there any doc which specifies that Deployng J2ee application on Websphere is better than OAS 10g.
    Regards
    Kumar

    If you have to choose an architecture now, I would advice not to choose Oracle Application Server, but BEA WebLogic. On Oracle Open World I learned that Oracle will stop developing on OC4J, so WebLogic seems the smarter choise.
    To either choose weblogic or websphere has to do with a lot more then just the J2EE specs. It also has to do with knowledge of your collegues (who have to support either of these products), company strategy, etc. Therefore this question cannot be answered that easy.
    Personally I think an all Oracle stack is just fine, WebLogic has a richer featureset then WebSphere (AFAIK). WebSphere is not a bad product though.

  • Application Servers and Mapviewer

    Hey All,
    I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on what application server it's best to run mapviewer on. Is it required to use mapviewer within an Oracle Application Server or OC4J for licensing reasons or is it possible to run mapviewer in whichever server we want without worrying about breaking a licensing agreement? Are there any application servers that are simply incompatible with Mapviewer?
    Thanks for the help.

    MapViewer should be compatible with any J2EE complied application server. We haven't tested all J2EE app server out there. But it works fine with the ones that we've tested, WLS, Webshere, Tomcat and JBoss.
    No matter which app server you end up using, in order to use MapViewer, you must have at least the most basic Oracle App Server license.

  • SYNC TIME ON APPLICATION SERVERS AND DATABASE SERVERS

    Our case is:
    We have system used for north america (NA) and system used for Europe (EUP).
    North American users are using NA systems (say P510 system), Europe users are using EUP systems (say P710 system).The system time on NA systems are EDT, the system time on EUP systems are CEST
    for exmaple:
    NA systems:
    [CA096658@st1lx014 ~]$ date
    Tue Sep 29 20:45:31 EDT 2009
    EUP systems:
    [CA096658@st1lx008 ~]$ date
    Wed Sep 30 02:29:28 CEST 2009
    P510 is the production system for NA, there are 4 application servers, 2 database servers, RAC, the system time show up on the os on these 6 servers are not sync, we want to sync the system time on these 6 servers to be the same EDT time. same thing to EUP systems, we want to sync the system time to be the same CEST time.
    We need to change that at the unix level, my question is:
    1) do we need to change anything at the database and application level ?
    2) before we change the time at the unix level, do we need to shutdown application and database ?

    >
    1) do we need to change anything at the database and application level ?
    >
    AFAIK, you do not have to change anything. EBS has the capability to perform timezone conversion. Pl see MOS Doc 330075.1 (User Preferred Time Zone Support Guidelines for Applications 11i10CU2)
    >
    2) before we change the time at the unix level, do we need to shutdown application and database ?

    It is best practice to shut down all applications/databases before changing server time.

  • Anyone have any idea which is the best application for taking notes and essay writting?

    im starting my first year of university and i was wondering what would the best application for taking notes on be? and also whats the easiest, most reliable and effective way to transfer documents off the ipad? Any thoughts on printing aswell?
    will be appreciating all the help i can get!

    You're going to get as many answers to that question as there are people to answer it. You don't state if you want to take handwritten notes or if you will be typing. For handwritten notes, I really like Noteshelf. It has lots of export options, my favorite being to Evernote (which you might want to look into as well for storage). For typing notes, I'd go with Pages, Documents to Go or QuickOffice. For working with PDFs, I like PDF Expert.
    I've recently heard good things about Note Anytime. It is free for a limited time, so it'st probably worth downloading to try out.
