Sorry Balu. "Enterprise middleware suckage" is just a term I made up to express my contempt for some of the middleware (especially web-related middleware like application servers, portal servers, web caches, and so on) produced by "enterprise" software companies. I'd rather not name names, but you can probably figure out who some of the culprits are. I owe the term to an old blog post by Tim Bray, which I believe was called "Enterprise Software Wreckage." Hope that helps. LOL.
