I put my money on Spring, Hibernate, JBoss lasting longer than Scala, Akka etc. Those technologies have stayed on, while other trends have come and and go.

- tmarthal 12y agoActually, it is basically Pivotal versus TypeSafe, not just Spring versus Akka or anything like that. I put my money on TypeSafe. Pivotal still (05/2014) doesn't have Java8 support for some of it's frameworks (grails https://jira.grails.org/browse/GRAILS-11063 https://jira.grails.org/browse/GRAILS-11063 ). TypeSafe pre-released versions of Play that take full advantage of Java8 features. Given that if you need to run a Java 1.4.2 app on top of JBoss (or Glassfish!) then the types of technologies that these two companies are pushing are solving problems in a different domain. And arguably the PermGen change in Java8 would benefit Grails/Groovy the most.
