Oracle WebLogic is in, OC4J is out
Jul 1st 2008vesterliApplication server & OC4J
It’s official: Oracle’s new JEE server is WebLogic. The strategic product will be called Oracle WebLogic, while OC4J has dropped into the “Continue & Converge” category. The reason for not dropping OC4J completely seems to be the need to let Oracle Applications customers continue running on their existing infrastructure.
While I have not made a solid technical comparison, the enthusiasm of the BEA community for WebLogic seems to indicate that it’s technologically superior to OC4J - I’ve never felt really enthusiastic about OC4J…
On the downside, this means the entire humongous Fusion Middleware stack now has to be tested with a new core component, making it very unlikely that we’ll see Oracle Application Server 11g this year.
