Choosing AMX bean or JMX Mbean

As what described in the article 'AMX: Design and Use ', GF use AMX to
simplify the JMX using.
But JMX mbean's implementation still can be found in GF, I tried to
summarize their location in below table:

        JMX
        AMX
Interface com.sun.enterprise.admin.mbeanapi com.sun.appserv.management
Implementation com.sun.enterprise.admin com.sun.enterprise.management


Could anyone explain the rules about how to choose AMX or JMX for
management?
Why not use AMX as the unique way ?

Please correct me if anything wrong.

Thanks,
Jim
