Discussion

Matt Raible is the track chair of The Framework Impasse track at next month's TheServerSide Java Symposium.

In this podcast interview, Matt discusses the inherent benefits of developing with a framework, component-based vs. request-based frameworks, the danger of a 'one framework fits all' mentality, criteria for comparing frameworks, and how all of this, and much more, will be covered in-depth at TSSJS.
