Is J2EE/EJBs a dying trend?
- by Taranfx
I might be wrong on this, but I no longer see heavy Business and Web services being hosted using J2ee technologies (Especially EJBs). Having known the power and scalability of J2ee applications, what is keeping developers/decision makers to restrict themselves to Core Java (POJOs) or even other web technologies like PHP, python.
Is it the development time?
Is it the Ease of configuration? (I feel this should not be a strong reason with Java EE 6, things are simplified)
Of course scripting languages are faster to develop, we cannot ignore the fact that they are inherently not-as-scalable as Java Applications are (using App servers)
