i heard oracle going to rewrite his databases to java sometime so why we should go against? about XRX - yep once you do it you never go back but i drop MarkLogic and start use eXist database with new Java7 and G1 garbage collector i guess we not need so much C/C++ using perl/php/ruby for web-applications - can you tell at least one reason except "we always did this so"? 2009/12/11 Andrew Welch <andrew.j.welch@xxxxxxxxx>: >> Perhaps the world has also moved on from Apache HTTP server and PHP?
