Hi Folks,
I'm a seasoned ASP.NET developer tired of Micorsoft stack and looking into Java lately. does Java or Seam have something similar to providers in .NET ?

Could you explain to us what is providers in Brief? Some of us may not have touched ASP before. :-)

Hello Amre,

I know the ASP.NET Membership-Provider very well.

SEAM has its own Membership-Provider (IdentityManagement, PermissionManagement) which is quite extensible. Look at the SEAM-Reference Chapter 15: Security.

Thanks Nimo , I'm glad that you know ASP.NET very well.
actually you would be the right guy to ask, i assume you know both Java and Csharp, and familiar with .NET. i do believe that java has much to offer , does seams have a steep learning curve ? does java overall added to you what .NET failed to offer ?

I have also used both (CSharp & ASP.NET, Java & JSF/Seam) and I have to admit there is no clear superiority in any of them. They both have strong and weak points.
