Maybe JBoss
really there is none. mod_perl turns apache into an application server,
and there is not much like it, where it can get you right into the heart
of the Apache response cycle.
If you want something that talks to 3 jsom servers and exposes your data
all over the net, you can do this with mod_perl, but it is not something
that would interest most mod_perl coders.
