Not all apps run on J2EE and there are many .NET applications out there, so there's also a need to integrate these two types of applications.
The Gartner Group says Java/.NET interop will gain an ever bigger
spotlight over the next 2-3 years, as up to 30% of all new enterprise
apps will be Java/.NET “hybrids.
To fulfill this integration need have emerged many products that claim to provide easy integration between .NET and J2EE.
In a recent interview, Ted Dinsmore, president of a consultancy that delivers integrated technology and business solutions said that "[Concerning J2EE integration] I'm not very excited about those products at all. If the developer on J2EE created a Web service, the developer on .NET is able to consume it. So why do I need third-party software to go between the two?"
However are these tools really required or can you just stick to
creating standard web services and achieve integration just as easily?

Using web services is a better long term option than using a commercial integration tool although the dev time is shorter with the integration tools |
