[nylug-talk] Why does "enterprise" imply "Java"?

[Felix Shnir]

Why do you have to twist it?  With normal management, you can convince them
to use the tool you find appropriate.  As said, there is right tool for any
job.  A large app that will have to do massive database work, distributed
transactions, massive user loads - there is nothing better than Java.  Hell,
build PHP web app - you can still tie it into a Java middleware, its all up
to the person in the field executing the decision.
