In most organizations you often have the restriction that software needs to be implemented in one language (in our case Java). I think this is often based on certain assumptions like: “It saves money because the employees do not have to learn more than one language.” or “We have invested a lot of money in these expensive commercial Application Servers and are afraid to loose our investments.”

I'm not sure I agree or not--I think it depends on the situation. (If you wind up with a large project that's a mish-mash of different languages then I'd say it's a Very Bad idea.)

Either way, this article is rather short and not very well argued, IMO.
