copied!<p>When it comes to enterprise ready, I'm not sure how much more ready a stack using Pylons with SQLAlchemy can be in the Python world. You're ready for massive legacy databases with crazy schemas (totally common in large corporate worlds), something where Django just falls apart at the seams. Sure, in Django, you <em>could</em> still use SQLAlchemy, but then all the Django contrib tools fall apart since they all rely on the assumption that you'd doing things the "Django" way.</p> <p>Pylons has been around since mid-2005, and it isn't going anywhere. It's actually quite mature, and has a fairly slow and solid release schedule of 6-10 months between releases, with quite a bit of testing. One of the core Pylons developers is also a developer on Jython ensuring that Pylons can run on the JVM (which helps get Pylons based apps into enterprise environments that are hostile to things that can't be packaged up into a WAR file for deployment).</p> <p>Regarding some of the other 'answers' here, the question is about whether Pylons is enterprise-ready, I have no idea why others were unable to read the question and instead chose to start preaching their own favorite framework. It's quite silly to say that you should use Django/Zope/Grok because it has "bigger uptake" or a "larger community", if that's the criteria the choice should be PHP, which makes the Django and Zope communities look itty bitty in comparison. Pylons definitely has a large enough community to sustain itself, especially as its rather lean and compact code-base don't pick up nearly as many bugs as the "kitchen sink" frameworks of Zope/Django.</p>
