EXPERT RESPONSE
Unfortunately, this ends up being a bit of an empty answer for lack of information. But this might be helpful for those trying to answer this same question for themselves.
There isn't any one tool/solution that will fit all needs. There are too many variables. So to know which one fits for you, I would have to know the following:
- Are you looking for shareware or commercial grade systems? In other words, how much are you willing to pay?
- Are you using industry standard systems like WebLogic for middle tier or open source systems like Tomcat?
- What other technologies are you running? JSP or ASP? mySQL or Oracle?
- Are your services running on Windows or Linux?
- Are you running fully redundant with failover on multiple servers? Or a single server?
There are a wide range of commercial products available and some reasonably good shareware products too. Figure out your requirements and budget and tailor to your needs.
