Comment IBM WebSphere (Commercial) (Score 1) 168
Even though IBM WebSphere is commercial you might want to look at it's features to see what one can do with a Web Application Server. You might also compare IBM WebSphere with simply a webserver that supports servlets. Keep in mind how large your application may grow. While things like simplicity, reusability, security, and good performance are very important pick a architecture that allows your app to be extensible as well.
