Smackdown II: WebSphere versus .NET

Now this is an interesting challenge from IBM:

http://star-techcentral.com/tech/sto...973&sec=corpit

I wonder... is this really OS/2, the Sequel?

Comments, anyone?

IMHO, this whole discussion was written by PR departments --- lots of broad
brush insinuation, very little on details.

J2EE write once run anywhere? Please. Nor is .NET at the moment. And the
J2EE arguments omits the whole "Java is cool but slower than molases" thing.

WebSphere doesn't run on OS/2 but on zOS. This is IBM's view of an
Enterprise class server:

MS isn't even close for this kind of applications.

Bo,
It really depends on what you consider to be WebShere.

http://www-3.ibm.com/software/info1/...tab=highlights

"WebSphere" is marketing's attempt to get brand recognition. Personally it
only confuses the managers whose developers actually need to use the
products. Oh you know WebSphere then you can use this RPG compiler on the
AS/400 (yes the RPG compiler on the AS/400 now falls under the WebSphere
Studio brand of products).

One variety or another of WebSphere application server runs on the zSeries,
the iSeries, the xSeries, the pSeries, as well as Linux, Windows XP, and
Windows 2003, plus a number of other platforms.

http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver...e/wsappserver/

WebSphere refers to both the development tools and to the Web/Application
server.

WebSphere Studio

WebSphere Application Server

Hope this helps
Jay

Hi Experts, I'm going to develop a new intranet application based on the .NET framework and use ASP.NET for development. Our app mainly access data from AS/400 DB2 while small amount of data will be accessed from SQL Server. Our main concern is the way to connect to Websphere MQ and it's reliability.

Ciao guys, I am working with WebSphere 5.1 (and soon with 6.0) and DB2 8.x on z/ OS. And here is my problem. I have a Stored Procedure (now SQL but if needed could also be Java) running on DB2. This STP is called from a client, and I want to inform my java application running on WebSphere about the call. How can I contact from STP on DB2 to my java application on WebSphere.
