Can we use Unix as the server?

[Guest]

Hi there,

We are to make the decision on whether to choose .Net or J2EE. One of the questions my clients asked is that, can we use the Unix as application server, and run Unix based database like Oracle on server side

Thanks in advance

For a best of both worlds approach you might consider the NetEdge Software
Web-Service Enabler. They have experience of connecting .NET clients to
web-services hosted on Linux servers using databases such as PostgreSQL.

Hi Bob,

Thanks a lot.

But did you mean that I have to purchase another software to do that?

If so, that would increase my implementation cost.

Have you got any better suggestions?

Thanks.

For .NET I don't think you can use UNIX as an application server. You can
have your AppServer code run on a windows box and the database on UNIX which
I think might be quite common in industry.

Yes you'd have to license a developer tool.

If that is too expensive I think you could make a hand-made solution work in
a couple of weeks given expert knowledge on the Linux and .NET sides of the
equation.
