Try to switch to relative view of chart, this shows percentage growth – this shows that Spring really rocks!

I think the ranks themselves aren't nearly as important as the trends. I've done similar research using Google Trends and what I've found is that the terms cannot be accurately ranked in regards to one another without someone crying foul. And rightly so. But take one line on that graph and just pay attention to how it trends; that can tell you a good deal.

Spring is obviously on the rise. Tomcat and JBoss are looking up as well. While it seems there isn't much more Java development going on in WebSphere and WebLogic as there was a few years ago.

And I don't need fancy graphs to tell me how EJB is doing.

As someone pointed out, Websphere covers a broad range of tools that have been out for a longer timespan.

The point of the article is to show that Spring and Tomcat Java developer skills are as easy to find in today's job market as other popular enterprise Java developer skills.

Georges,
It is not surprising that J2ee java developer yields a larger result set; it is a broader, more general term.

Stephan,
I erred on the side of keeping the chart less cluttered.
Modifying the criteria to also include websphere java developer, yields the following link:

http://www.indeed.com/jobtrends?q=tomcat and java and developer, weblogic and java and developer, spring and java and developer, jboss and java and developer, ejb and java and developer, websphere and java and developer&l=

Going to that link, WebSphere Java Developer appears as a yellow line that, for the past 6 months, is slightly below Spring and well above Weblogic. I will add this additional chart to the post.

Stephan, I agree it would be nice to see websphere, and any stats like these are imperfect, but since IBM labels everything as "Websphere" these days, how would you go about narrowing to the appserver?
