Enhydra (plain?) lists for $99
Enhydra (enterprise) lists for $499

But the stuff in cvs looks like code for Enterprise, so I am not sure what the
$499 gives you.

I just downloaded the RedHat RPM and installed it, I am in the process of
comparing and contrasting Tomcat and Enhydra.

In the RedHat RPM version, you can use the Enhydra Redirector to give
load-balanced round-robin clustering/failover between Apache and Enhydra. I have
not set this up, but from the docs, it looks like this will work with the RPM
version, which is the OpenSource version, which I think is the $99 version 
without printed manuals.

I don't know if this gives you server affinity and all the great stuff, but I
can fill people in who are interested as I learn more.
