We have a very large financial services applicaiton built with Tapestry 3
and it meets all the requirements for the project. But in looking ahead, I
am trying to get some data to guide technology decisions for the project.
My questions are:
- Hibernate is used extensively in 4.x and though the principal is that you
don't need to worry about Hibernate, the emails on this list make it look
like a lot of deviations from defaults require Hibernate. Does anyone know
if Hibernate is used outside of Tapestry? Specifically how is its user-base
size and popularity when compared with Spring?
- I've heard that 5 is not going to be backward compatible with 3. So that
would give me absolutely no reason to upgrade to 4.x anytime soon. Is the
4.x to 5 incompatibility true? If so, it also seems like Tapestry is
negatively skewed from a "business" perspective - high barrier to adopt the
framework (the learning curve is higher and frankly it is almost impossible
to find anyone in the market with Tapestry experience) but it provides a low
barrier to exit - if versions are not going to be compatible and require
significant effort, then why not evalulate other frameworks out there?
- Anyone have experience comparing this with Echo 2? The echo 2 demo on
their website does look impressive.
Your thoughts are appreciated...
