When to Use WebLogic Express
WebLogic Express is a good fit for projects that use Servlets and Java
Server Pages (JSPs), and Java applications using Java classes, Remote Method Invocation (RMI),
and Java Database Connectivity (JDBC).
WebLogic Express does not support Enterprise Java Beans, Java Messaging Service, J2EE Connector Architecture,
EJB-implemented Web Services, and other features
targeted at enterprise-level applications. It is a suitable alternative to using an OpenSource Servlet Engine.
Read the white paper "Choosing the right Servlet engine" for a
detailed discussion comparing WebLogic Express with the OpenSource alternatives.

When to Upgrade WebLogic Express to WebLogic Server
Upgrade from WebLogic Express to WebLogic Server if you need to repartition your layers to
create a separate Business logic/EJB layer, to meet certain business needs or to
manage architecture complexity. You should upgrade to WebLogic Server if you need to integrate with applications that
are supported by J2EE Connector Architecture. You should upgrade to WebLogic Server if you need a messaging infrastructure (Java Messaging Service) for your
application.
