1 | Although the implementation of the WebFlow proved to be very successful, we are not satisfied with this to the large extend custom solution |
2 | Middle tier is based on a custom protocol implemented directly on top of URL and socket based interactions |
3 | Not scalable (Uses multi-threading to support concurrency of user modules in middle-tier) |
4 | Difficult to implement security features, fault tolerance, monitoring |
5 | Impossible to take advantage of new technologies |
6 | There is no flexibility to compose application |
7 | Supports only data-flow model |
8 | There is no persistent model( like with XML and java serialization) |
9 | There is no way to copy and paste any user module running in a application |
