Oracle ADF/BC4J vs "other" Java/J2ee technologies. Influence a decision

Vitaliy OrbidanOct 23 2007 — edited Nov 4 2007
Dear All,
Our dev group is now at the stage when we need to make a decision which way to go - "proprietary" Oracle ADF/BC4J route or open source/java/j2ee standard. In our group we have a mix of Oracle Foms, pl/sql and java developers. The problem is that our core java developers are strictly against any proprietary thing, and they do not really want to even take a look at ADF/BC4J claiming that when it comes to resolving performance and other issues we will be better off with open source, rather than depend on Oracle...
I am coming from an Oracle centric world, and to me ADF is a natural choice, however I do not have a lot of experience in Java/J2EE to post a strong argument for or against ADF and BC4J.

I am just wondering if there is a case study, or comprehensive cons and pros for one or the other path.

I will greatly appreciate anyone's answer.

Thank you,

VO
