Java’s Future Exist in the Enterprise

January 28, 2011 by · 3 Comments 

This comes as no surprise to me as in my opinion the primary strength of Java lies with it’s enterprise abilities.

Forrester’s authors say that its report, “The Future of Java,” is not a Java obituary. Java is still dominant in the enterprise but no programming language has retained a central position through multiple platform changes. Java will evolve just as Assembler, C and COBOL did. More so, the core message here is for application developers and how applications are distributed.

…

Oracle controls the future of Java but its road map has been accepted and that means no major disruptions for enterprise customers. But it’s clear that Java is no longer the center for technology innovation. The innovation is now on the platforms and with Ruby and open environments such as HTML 5.

via Why The Future of Java is with Large Customers, not Innovative, Young Developers.

    Java’s future is solid, at least among the fortune 100 companies in America. It is hard to find one that is not trying to reduce costs and to solve complex and very critical business needs with something other than open source solutions – Java being #1 on that list. The shear numbers of capable developers and pre-built widgets make this a viable and forward looking development environment.

    Java has a good future, though it may be advanced or at a higher level. The demand of java development in the IT Industry is high, and their are less java developers as compared to developers in other branches.

    I this java like language has a larger life then any other languages. Though there are other languages evolving and frameworks popping around, I dont really think it may be extinct any sooner.
