Is it a Tomcat, or the Elephant in the Room?

,----[ Quote ]
| In the era of open source, the traditional API-led sale for application 
| servers has been replaced by a QoS sale. Java EE 6 "profiles" may help to 
| formalize this. Interestingly, the app server vendor with the most to worry 
| about here may well be Red Hat. If an app server is a QoS sale rather than an 
| API sale, the fact that JBoss AS matches BEA and IBM on APIs but not on QoS 
| may not be enough to justify its use over Tomcat.

| Reflecting on this experience, the Terracotta team realized that we
| should never charge developers. We have to make everything that the
| developer needs to go into production open to them. Terracotta's
| revenues will come from IT operations. We believe that the
| operators of large deployments of Terracotta will need and
| want to pay for enterprise-class support and services, and
| down the road will want us to create new products that will
| help simplify large-scale operations.
