Have any of you had much experience using Java in a batch environment

My gut tells me that the Java performance will be an issue - but I
have no experience to back that up one way or the other. COBOL
already outperforms RPG in batch and I've never seen a Java program
beat out RPG performance wise so ... but if somebody has some
experience that suggests that Java is viable as an option in this
arena I'm more that happy to be wrong.


Hi Jon,

We use Java extensively in a batch environment with what I consider
to be great success. I unfortunately don't have any comparison data
in regard to relative speeds between Java and Rpg. We use it to
marshal and un-marshal xml to and from trading partners and clients
and to send and receive ssh ftp. Sorry I can't tell you more...
