It has issues with deployment and hosting requirements. We can say that Java has lost its positions to PHP, Ruby, Python, and even .NET in this area. However Java remains the best solution for big enterprise projects.

Today I was watching RailsConf 2007 keynote and Sun clearly explained why it loves Ruby and Rails. Very simple, if you need scalability, power, integration with existing enterprise systems then you can build your application in jRuby on Rails and get access to J2EE. And if your project is small you can write it in Ruby on Rails and get easiness of deployment and simple hosting requirements. In both cases you use Rails. Both Java and Rails win!

So what technology are you going to use for your next project?
