Difference between Accelerator and Management Centre

Management Centre vs Commerce Accelerator

1.For promotions and espot configurations, which is a better approach - management center or accelerator?
Considering the management center's design, its complex structure takes more time in implementing new modifications as compared to accelerator modifications.

2.We can view the status what change's we did in Management Center, If we did any wrong it shows an error, but in Accelerator the error is not shown.

3.Management center provides a rich UI with features like drag and drop. There is a possibility that in some future releases Commerce Accelerator may be removed. With current release it is not possible as it is tightly coupled with the framework.

4.For an end user perspective Management Center will be the preferred tool. Being a flash based tool it is slow but very user friendly.

5.Management Center, It's sometimes slow but it provides more usability such as drag and drop,etc which makes it a favorite tool for the business user.

=============

Accelerator:
Create content spot and schedule
Management Center:
Moving forward, no separate object for content spots, will be phased out
Content spot was originally created for performance reasons,
New caching of e-spots eliminates need for content spots
Now, changing from static (content spot) to dynamic (e-spot) content does not require change in code/jsp
Previous in Management Center – Campaign, Web Activity, Marketing Experiment, Email Activity, Promotion, Content
New in Management Center – Customer Segment, e-Spot, Dialog Activity

Issues While Starting WAS Server

This happens when there is other application which is also using the same port 8880.
