IBM WebSphere Application Server Pros and Cons

The solution is robust. The connection management and the scalability, which IBM provides to the Stack, are also valuable.

High availability, alert management, and deployments are the most valuable features for us. We have the ND version so we can do deployments.

The most valuable feature of this solution is Portal Virtualization.

They should make the solution more lightweight and not bundle everything into a single product.

The footprint could be reduced so that we can use a smaller virtual machine to run the application. We could also use more scripts. I would like this solution to be more script oriented, rather than GUI oriented.

In the next release of this solution, I would like to see support for the Arabic language.
