Comparison<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>Hello,<BR> <BR>I am very new to geoservers and am currently
studying GIS info system. I am wondering whether you could help me getting an
overview and comparison of some of the Servers such as MapServer, GeoServer and
Deegree.<BR> <BR>I've gone through the documentation of these Servers and
the presentation of FOSS4G conferences. What I've got is that these servers are
similar to each other, regarding the functionality and features. (I am probably
wrong about this). And I still don't help a clear picture of these projects. For
example, what's the strength and weakness of each server in some particular
scenario? Or why would people choose MapServer over GeoServer? I guess I could
never answer these questions without ever using them, right? Could anyone of you
give me some help or tips on this? <BR> <BR>Thank you very
much.<BR> <BR>Cheers,<BR>Jovi </BODY></HTML>
