    Cons
    Oracle
    • One of the areas where we found Glassfish adaptation difficult for our company was the lack of documentation and community forums covering important issues.
    • We ran into a roadblock with OAuth 2.0 implementation and did not get great support on that issue.

    Return on Investment
    Oracle
    • Glassfish which initially spun off from an Open Source project has a community edition which is free to use and offers great ROI.
    • In comparison to cloud offerings like AWS and Google App Engine, Glassfish requires more cost upfront for installation and management.
