"Even Apple have dodgy bits of PHP bolted on to their web site.http://is.gd/1i8tH
Still, got to be better than WebObjects, right?"
I find that kind of comments at least 3 times per week :-/
Most of the people on twitter don't even know what apps are and
aren't WebObjects (nor what WebObjects even IS, for that matter) ...
Go do a search -- they bitch about the iPhone developer forum, for
instance, which is JSP/Servlet.
I think most of them blame WO for everything just because of either
the URLs (I saw a couple of stupid comments about how "bad", in their
opinion, WO URLs are) or because the Apple Online Store is down when
they release new or updated stuff... But it's funny to see RoR/PHP
people blame WO for scabality but Twitter generate timeouts or
"overlead" messages everyday and they just have to deal with 140 chars
message :-) Imagine if they had to deal with the same size of content
as iTunes...
<IMO>What it comes down to is that software is hard, and most apps
suck, regardless of the framework you use. Making an app scale in WO
is hard. Making an app scale in Rails is hard. WO/EOF have some
great concepts, but it's not like it's immune from scaling problems,
the problems are just different. I think Rails probably lets you get
a simple-to-medium app up more easy, WO lets you get a medium-to-big
app up more easily, and both of them have problems > "big," just in
different ways. The question is whether we can make the WO
experience for "simple-to-medium" competitive, which it just isn't
right now (a combination of lots of factors, all solvable).</IMO>
