WebSphere versus .NET: battle royale!
Lots of benchmarketing action on the application server/middleware front:
“After carrying out a number of benchmarks, Microsoft concluded that .NET offers better performance and cost-performance ratio than WebSphere.” (Shock! Surprise!)
“IBM rebutted Microsoft’s findings and carried out other tests proving that WebSphere is superior to .NET.” (Shock! Surprise!)
“Microsoft responded by rejecting some of IBM’s claims as false and repeating the tests on different hardware with different results.”
And it goes on and on. All the gory details here.
