What have been the parameters? Speed & Memory footprint -> maybe jboss Scalability, Cluster support, Stability, concurrent access? -> definitely Weblogic

It's a popularity contest based on negative or positive feedback found on the web... no parameters. Gotta love Glassfish.

Does this really means anything? Usually people don't say when everything is going well, and maybe some of the servers require more customization, more fine settings but run better at the end. So this comparison here doesn't make sense. It says Glassfish is excellent. Why? Hiprank should rather write: Glassfish is the preferred AS. The most used/preferred things aren't always the best ones. About 95% of desktop PC in the world are running Windows. Does it mean Microsoft makes the best OS in the world. 99% people use a mouse as a pointing device. Does that mean trackballs and touchpad are crap? Or take it this way: Lady Gaga sold X million albums. Is Lady Gaga's music excellent? I believe all 4 AS are good, reliable, and usable in the real / business world. If you can choose it, try them all and take the one you like. If you can't decide, maybe performance, "easyness" to deploy apps, integration to your tools and such things can be evaluated.
