Is Python fit for multi-tiEred apps?

[Eike Kock]

Thanks for all your answers.

I looked at Zope, Webware, OSE, MEMS, ... . Webware looks interesting but
still has some way to go. Dispite of all the drawbacks I stated earlier I'm
going for J2EE now. Not coding it directly though but using a program
written in Python to generate the code (coding EJBs with all the suggested
design patterns by hand is not really an option).

Python is a wonderful language. What I miss is a framework for building
scaleable enterprise systems (multi-tiered, transparent object distribution,
transaction monitoring, clustering, ...). If we could build such a system
and make it easy to understand and use, I'm sure Python would be "king of
the hill" (see thread "Why isn't Python king of the hill?" in
comp.lang.python).
