James Gosling talks about the development of Java
Today, Java has become a factual standard for distributed enterprise applications. In the words of James Gosling, Java's development history is like a science fiction. Recently, James Gosling accepted Varbusiness interview, published its own insights for Java, Sun and Microsoft .NET.
It can be seen from this interview that James Gosling is still proud of the identity of its computer scientists, as well as scientific achievements in Java. Of course, as Sun's vitality and technical backbone, he has to pay attention to something outside of technology. Gosling recognizes that on the application server market, Sun is not an opponent of IBM and BEA at all. However, he explained that Sun's strategy is not to be a powerful application server manufacturer, but to create an open, competitive, Java-based software market, and then sell hardware products and systems on this market. Program. Gosling reaffirmed an economical basic view: competitive market is healthy - Microsoft .NET did not intend to give competitor space, so .NET's market will still be unhealthy monopoly market.
For IBM and BEA achievements, Gosling expressed joy and pride because they all built the main software products on the basis of Java. At the same time, gosling means that Sun will not continue to tighten the control of Java, but will not give up existing control, especially in J2EE compatibility certification. Gosling believes that strict compatibility certifications will ensure good communication in Java communities, which is beneficial to Java developers.
When talking about .NET, James Gosling believes that Microsoft's experience in enterprise applications, resulting in .NET will be difficult to adopt for companies with a large number of legacy systems. Gosling believes that Microsoft's best is development tools, but J2EE communities also have some very good development tools. J2EE development tools represented by Eclipse can match Visual Studio .NET in terms of eclipse.
Finally, James Gosling also answered some questions about ISV support strategies. I remember that Gosling once said that I like "Geeky" in an interview with Bill Venners, I can see that this market propaganda message can't afford my spirit. Maybe he still likes Bill Venners to ask him some technical issues in deep details.
