I knew Oracle had bought BEA, so I knew they had acquired the WebLogic stuff, but I can’t remember reading that they had practically scrapped their own Application Servers in favor of it. The last I read about it was this:
Yet a quick visit to the Oracle websites makes it look pretty clear that WebLogic is the platform of choice:
- http://www.oracle.com/appserver/index.html
- http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/index.html
I’m sure quite a few people with a vested interest in the original Oracle middle tier will feel a bit annoyed by this…
So all these years I’ve been listening to Oracle tell me their App Servers are the best, then they scrap it overnight…
Have I been snoozing and missed something? Am I mistaken? Am I confused?
Probably all three…
Cheers

Update: I’ve just done some more Googling and it looks like the writing has been on the cards for a while, so it looks like I’ve been snoozing and missed it… 🙂
I guess next I’ll find out Oracle have bought Teradata and the database is now called Oracle Teradata 12g… 🙂
