It ships with a web console for administration and runs under Tomcat. That really did not surprise me that much, but the fact that written using Struts 1.x did. I am not sure how much I buy this things since I seriously doubt job postings are the best indicators of the technologies that are actually being used, but just for fun: http://www.indeed.com/jobtrends?q=erlang%2C+django%2C+iphone%2C+struts%2C+ejb%2C+java%2C+.net&l= All those new things may be "cool", but it is really, really hard to replace the amount of free software written in Java. I am pretty sure that JVM/CLR/Mono (maybe) will be the platform of choice for enterprise applications for the forseeable future. Whether or not Java/C# is the language of choice is another matter.
