Application
development using Java language becomes an industry
standard for building scalable solutions, whether for
enterprise or object-oriented software development or
for that matter mobile application. Java is a general
purpose programming language with a number of features
that make the language well suited for use on the World
Wide Web and real world enterprise application space.
Modeled after C++, Java is a high-level
object oriented programming language is designed as
small, simple, and remains portable across platforms
and operating systems, both at the source and at the
binary level. What’s more! Compiled Java code
can run on most computers because Java interpreters
and runtime environments, known as Java Virtual Machines
(JVMs), exist for most operating systems which makes
JAVA a platform-independent language.
In addition, Java improves development
time & quality by providing prevention and detection
of common programming errors, through the use of exceptions,
restrictions on memory accesses, and memory garbage
collection. Simultaneously, support for object-oriented
programming was intelligently designed into Java,
rather than being hacked into C++.
More importantly, application development using Java
frees you from the grip of Microsoft.
Java has been around for quite sometime
now and there is an abundant API available for application
developers. One can see the increasing acceptance
of the J2EE platform in the software industry, as
these days increasing number of software development
firms have been designing application development
using Java, rather J2EE, technology. All the industry
verticals like Manufacturing, Telecommunication, Financial
Services, Online Commerce, among other are getting
empowered with application development using Java.
Application Development teams around
the globe leverage Java based technologies to deliver
the benefits of n-tier application architectures.
Java based technologies such as J2SE, J2ME and J2EE
environments, including Java, Swing, Java Server Pages
(JSP), Servlets, XML technology, are increasingly
being used to develop very large applications with
assured adherence to standards, best practices and
efficiency.
Application Development using
Java based technologies can be used in the following
domains:
- Business Value Proposition
- Favorable Currency Exchange Rates
- Lesser Labor costs
- Application integration
- Customization and enhancements
- Web integration
- Architecture elaboration
- Database design and administration
- Database tuning and automated maintenance
- Iterative development
- Functionality, compatibility, and performance
testing
Benefits of having Application
Development using Java:
- A rich user experience: The Java platform provides
the foundation for true mobility. The unique blend
of mobility and security in application development
using Java technologies makes it one of the ideal
development and deployment vehicles for mobile
and wireless solutions.
- The ultimate execution environment for Web
services: The Java in addition to XML language
is the widely accepted computing language. Application
development using Java based technologies provides
maximum reach to everyone, everywhere, every time
and on every device and platform.
- Business from end to end: Application development
using Java offers a single, unifying programming
model that can connect all elements of the business
infrastructure.
