  • jhabrams jhabrams yes the Java world is over complex for sure. Part of that is the price of the power and flexibility you get with all the Java technologies. Part of it is that Java is a lot older (at least in terms of popular usage) than PHP, Ruby, or Python (none of which I remember hearing about back in say 1996 when I worked as an engineer in Netscape's Java group). In ten years, there might be 10 confusingly overlapping frameworks for Ruby too...

    Are you sure you want to Yes No
  • jboutelle Jonathan Boutelle , entrepreneur CTO at SlideShare This is a great presentation, and a nice reality check for Ruby / Php people. Obviously Java scales fine if you do it right ... the problem is that there is so much complexity in the Java world, and the culture of Java programmers often emphasizes other things (code maintainability, I18N, pretty design patterns, etc) besides scaling. So you have to dig a bit deeper than in the php / ruby world before you even find out about stuff like memcached!

    There's probably a book in here somewhere about building consumer internet sites in Java. Not that you want to write a book, but somebody should.
