You are an Enterprise Architect in a large IT organization. Your organization has deployed
applications on a variety of containers such as WLS, WebSphere, and JBoss. Why would
you consider consolidating on a single type of container (instead of a mix)?
A.
Guarantee of higher application performance and reliability if the transactions are flowing
between instances of the same container type.
B.
Easier to build a Shared Services infrastructure that can provide best practices, tools and
expertise around HA/Management… with a single type of container than a mix of multiple
types.
C.
You’ll save on hardware costs with a homogeneous environment.
D.
It’s a necessary step in our move toward adopting SOA.
