Will Java will be quiz?
From some aspects, it can be said that for Java's repercussions, I can't help but think about the Unix Wars of the bonfire ten years ago: a large number of market fragments in the hands of strong giant companies, these debris is their "Noah's Ark". At that time, it was the Central Plains, which is a new operating system, which can fill a blank between large hosts and desktop operating systems. Today's Java is just like UNIX, also symbolizes the rebellion of the industry monopoly manufacturers. Unix can book unique markets with a set of coordinated unified general program interfaces, so that the software can not be modified on various types of platforms without modification, and no need to make any modifications. The result is not difficult to imagine, a UNIX group that is completely possible to unchelch beat the analysis. Every manufacturer wants to monopolize the market, and they continue to expand in their UNIX version. The UNIX line is increasingly clouded, which makes Microsoft can show their own trends, and advocate themselves as a new boss, advocating themselves to replace UNIX past advantages, achievement across the business platform. Unix's market position is finally stable, but is it your position? Today, the Java platform is watching the streets. Where will it go? In the fierce scenes, it can continue to maintain a strong development moment? How do Microsoft and the battle between the same line? Under the broad background of global network, the cold eye to watch the industry group hegemony, one scene is playing a good show, how can it be intoxicated! Excitement is inevitable: history will repeat itself. Of course, this repetition is just the god of God, because the technical wheel rolling forward, all political sciences are in the air, and they have been in the past. Only in this way, the future will be renewed. If Java is compared with UNIX, it is a significant difference between them in mind. First, when UNIX emerged, as a promising cross-platform operating system, it has already gone through almost 20 years, and experts have never designed it into a modular distributed operating system. Java is very different, it is only two years old, it seems that the sun in the morning is in the throne. Designers have deeply gone, produce it into a distributed platform. At the moment, Java's market has not been fully mature, but the strength of Java language and its infrastructure will bring huge potential to it, which can be described as successful. Second, there is a significant difference: Today's developers are favored by Java, far exceeding their former interest in UNIX. Equally important: developers can use a retailer's virtual machine without having to limit on a single platform. This will ensure that Java has the opportunity to give full play to its potential advantages, this means that Microsoft is old and autumn, and Sun Microsystems will enter the trend? Do we mean that we will have such a Java-all institutions, once it is written, can you use it on any platform? Not completely. I think we will see a more complex result in the future. Especially should be emphasized - Microsoft will successfully install its Java version to the Windows platform; Hewlett-Packard and its partners will explore their own development direction to meet the specialization needs of potential markets; IBM will use Java and Enterprise JavaBeans systems create cross-platform unified language and infrastructure for hosts and PCs, which can be used for all platforms, from hosts to PC, no exception. Sun will continue to fight with the parties, keep control and maintain a brand name.
