“Covalent Enterprise Ready Server (ERS) 2.1 is a complete, integrated package of Web and application server software combined with an advanced Web-based management interface. For this review, I tested the single server edition (SSE) version of ERS on Windows 2000. However, it also runs on
Solaris, Linux and HP-UX.”
