[ajug-members] Tomcat in the Enterprise

One of our larger clients (2.5 billion in revenue, 8-9k employees)
actually moved from BEA to plain ol' servlet container for one of their
direct green-screen interface efforts. We also did a proof for using
Tomcat: they are a Sun shop tho using SunOne Web server (old iplanet).

The pattern tends to depend on the fitness of the tool to the complexity
of the requirements. Since usually larger companies have move complex
projects, they might choose complex tools more often. But there are
special fits like the project above.

My previous response said vanilla Tomcat (with Cocoon): we are a company
with more than a billion in sales and 5000 employees -- does that count
as big?
