Hi there,
I'm not sure what you mean by "hard to use". I'd claim that GlassFish
is easier than most other open source app servers (and maybe less
bloated that commercial ones) but I'm a bit biased here...
Also, "slow to start" doesn't seem fair in comparison to other
appservers. I think the only one that starts faster than v2.1 is
Tomcat which is not on your list.
"very complex config files", hum... GlassFish has one single, easy-to-
read, well documented config file : domain.xml.
Re-LoadBalancing, One of GlassFish's strong points is that its
clustering doesn't require any specific load-balancing. In other words
the LB does not need to know how the cluster deals with replicas. Any
LB capable of session affinity will do. GlassFish supports Apache, Sun
Web Server, and even IIS. Network load-balancers (hardware or
software) can also be used. Oh, and of course, we have IIOP load-
balancing too, not just front-end.
In the "Advantages" section, I'd add :
- "Metro" as the one-stop-shop for Web Services
- The 'asadmin' command line interface and the Web Admin Console.
There's probably more to it but I'll let others chime in.
cheers,
-Alexis
