I'm exceeding unconvinced by this article. His plus points for JEE were really stretching:

- Sustainability - do we really think Spring is going to die?

- Light weight testing is possible - so JEE has caught up with spring...

- Convention over configuration - like spring.

- Multiple providers - OK that's a potential benefit but I'm not seeing the realisation of it yet. It could also mean that different providers have different bugs.

From my personal investigations Spring offers many advantages. In some places JEE has matched them in others it's still behind. So I would ask myself do I want to go with the framework that's driving the advancement, or the framework that is playing catchup? Also these days Spring is the standard.
