Why should i use Tomcat vs .NET? 2003-10-13 - By epyonne

That's typical. Almost 10 out of 10 times when an executive who champions a
humongous project, it is solely for his/her own resume or agenda. Very
seldom it is for the good of the company as a whole.

Up front I do need to say that the support of this user group has
been more than outstanding. I was a sole person looking for help and I
received more than I could have expected, and for that thanks to all.
Eventually I have lost the war; my CTO has decided on a new technology on
his lonesome and has hinted that any effort expended moving forward won't
result in any reconsideration of his decision (so much for standards and not
putting all your eggs in one basket) Again, I've learned much from all those
who have replied to my request and hope that others have learnt a little
sumthin' along the way.
Much Thanks,
Eduardo

Simple decision. If your company is a pure "Microsoft shop", i.e. you use
Windows desktops, Windows servers, and SQL Server databases, then it is a
no-brainer, go with .NET.
On the other hand, if your company has a mixed environment like ours, i.e.
Windows and Linux OSs, UNIX Servers, Windows Servers, Oracle databases....
so on and so on. You may not want to use .NET. Microsoft claims that .NET
can port to UNIX, but there is still a long way to go IMHO. J2EE will be a
better choice for such diverse environment.
By the way, Tomcat is merely a web/servlet container and .NET is an
enterpirse architecture. You are comparing apple to orange.
Hope this helps.

I work for a small company which is seriously considering the .NET route
moving into the future. My mission if I chose to accept is to sway popular
opinion towards Tomcat (Jakarta) for reasons I've yet to summarize because I
can't confidently regurgitate any (I'm new to Linux/Tomcat for the most
part). Is there anyone who has made this argument yet? Are there anyone have
a url with the comparison done already or a list of reasons why .NET isn't
optimal versus the other options or on the flip side of that; why tomcat
rocks? Any help would be appreciated; I'm not looking forward to becoming
even more reliant on one company.
Thanks in advance,
Eduardo
