For a long time, I couldn’t stop thinking how my professor would grade these web-based applications deployed by many companies today. My guess is an “C” for almost every one of them.

I was quite thrilled to hear about BEA’s AquaLogic product lines in the last couple of weeks. AquaLogic is a “bet” the company thing for BEA – it is closely related to Nexaweb’s “project tornado”. In general, BEA’s AquaLogic, SAP’s NetWeaver and Oracle Fusion are all similar to some degree– ...
