Page 2 - Java Developers Leery of IBM-Sun Merger - 0 views

shared by Baron M on 01 Apr 09 - Cached
  • IBM still runs basic physics last I checked and has deep resources in research to throw at any problem it wants
  • with more money and influence than nearly all of their competitors
  • both companies are highly invested in Java, which means it will continue, but in what form we have no idea
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • IBM is not interested in Sun software but in the Sun hardware and storage
    • Baron M
       
      different perspective
  • pose a number of integration issues for IBM Software Group
  • expect that IBM will take the long view, that an open, flourishing ecosystem around Java will be the tide that lifts all boats
  • some observers say IBM would do well to merge the best parts of both platforms into one.
  • IBM has been a proponent of open standards in the Java ecosystem, and I expect that will continue
  • shed a lot of the weaker products (and a significant number of redundant staff)

      conclusion: SUN and JCP suck, so they deserve this. God bless java and java dependent vendors.

Java Developers Leery of IBM-Sun Merger - 0 views

  • Java must advance into the new world of the cloud and big developer productivity.
  • Java will become a legacy platform.
  • slow down innovation
  • ...10 more annotations...
  • It would certainly bring us down to two major players on the Java side: IBM and Oracle.
    • Baron M
       
      this is damn TRUE!
  • IBM likes to create these 'boil the ocean' kinds of solutions
    • Baron M
       
      this is the GENERAL PRACTICE of IBM and Oracle
  • IBM could wind up having six different JVM [Java Virtual Machine] implementations
    • Baron M
       
      I like this example... and most likely, this would happen if IBM buys SUN
  • it's a good thing for Sun to get out of the doldrums
  • Every time IBM has bought a company that was in a leadership position, that company seems to have lost market share
    • Baron M
       
      sad but it's a fact...
  • JCP for behaving like a "Russian commissar.
  • Although many have lost faith in the JCP, this is one area where a new steward could really breathe new life into Java
  • the speediest when it comes to keeping their Java technologies up-to-date
  • hold back innovation in support of their own client needs
  • server market would become a bit tighter and that playing field would be altered as well

Evolutionary architecture and emergent design: Emergent design through metrics - 4 views

  •  
    Some of the common questions relating to cyclomatic complexity are "How does my code compare to others?" and "What is a good number for a particular class?" The iPlasma project answers these questions (see Resources). iPlasma is a platform, created as a university project in Romania, for quality assessment of object-oriented design. It generates a pyramid, showing key metrics for your project along with comparisons to industry-standard ranges for those numbers.

Spring to Java EE - A Migration Experience | OcpSoft - 0 views

  •  
    Does it all make sense now? Do you know how to solve every problem? Probably not, but when it comes right down to it, using Java EE can be even simpler than using Spring, and take much less time. You just have to find the right guides and the right documentation (which is admittedly a severe sore-spot of Java EE; the documentation is still a work in progress, but is getting much better, save blogs like this one.) You have to turn to a vendor like JBoss, or IBM in order to get the use-case driven documentation you need, and they do have documentation, it's just a matter of finding it. Seam 3 in particular strives to give extensive user-documentation, hopefully making things much simpler to adopt, and easier to extend. The main purpose of this article was not to bash Spring, although I may have taken that tone on occasion just for contrast and a little bit of fun. Both Spring and Java EE are strongly engineered and have strong foundations in practical use, but if you want a clean programming experience right out of the box - use Java EE 6 on JBoss Application Server 6 - JBoss Tools - and Eclipse. I will say, though, that the feeling I've gotten from the Spring forums vs the Java EE forums, is that there are far many more people willing to help you work through Java EE issues, and more available developers of the frameworks themselves to actually help you than there are on the Spring side. The community for Java EE is much larger, and much more supportive (from my personal experience.) In the end, I did get my application migrated successfully, and despite these issues (from which I learned a great deal,) I am still happy with Java EE, and would not go back to Spring! But I do look forward to further enhancements from the JBoss Seam project, which continue to make developing for Java EE simpler and more fun. Don't believe me? Try it out. Find something wrong? Tell me. Want more? Let me know what you want to hear.
