Let's imagine you're a Tapestry developer and you are ask to write a portlet for your company's huge cms that is built on top of liferay or jboss portal. There are many cases where writting portlets makes sense. Because every portlet is standalone different technologies such as struts, tapestry etc... may be used under the same portal by many developers. If you're writting a CMS from scratch and you're not planning on having other people non tapestry developers contribute to it yes, the servlet version makes more sense.

Hi,
during browsing the tapestry-page i often come over 1 point: portlet support on the tapestry page its even a major markup, but i dont see the benefits it
should bring... i mean with tapestry everything is just a component... so
why do we need portlets? - as far as i understood, a portlet just needs a
portlet server in wich we have a config and some portlets plugged
together... meaning it comes similar to lets say, 1 main layout and some
components plugged in togehter without the needed portlet server... would anyone please be so kind and tell me what the benefits from portlets should be ?
- and why it is important thet the page lists " The pattern of development
for Tapestry portlet applications is to create a (generally) small
application, consisting of just a few pages. Each Tapestry portlet within a
portal page will be a completely separate instance of not just the portlet,
but all the Tapestry services behind it. "  - where is the point of having
components/ portlets not talking to each other???

Korbinian
