O Java EE 7 Application Servers, Where Art Thou? - DZone Java
First of all, as you can see there is no Websphere Classic. Despite being a big player, it is difficult to find, difficult to install, and has no Mac OS X support. I hope one day I'll be able to add it to the benchmark.
What did I want to show in this blog ? Well, that application servers have changed. Most app servers take few resources, are modular and have nice tricks to start up fast (like lazy loading services).
And why did I want to show this ? Just to show that the "Tomcat is light, Java EE app servers are not" line is outdated. Use the app server that fits your need. You need Servlet ? Go for Jetty or Tomcat. You need some JAX-RS with CDI and JPA ? Choose TomEE, WildFly or Websphere Liberty. You need the full monty ? Use WildFly, Weblogic or GlassFish. You need production support ? Use JBoss EAP (you'll have to wait a few extra month). You need to create Micro Services ? Wait for my next blog).
