Oracle promises to invest a lot in Java

Directors of Oracle and Sun - Larry Ellison and Scott McNealy - jointly spoke at the JavaOne conference, where they talked about the future of Sun's assets, which passed to the new owner. It should be noted that this is Ellison's first public appearance since the purchase of Sun, which occurred on April 20th.

Allison chose to keep silent about the hardware, said nothing about servers, processors, storage systems, network equipment and thin clients. But he spoke in detail about the future of Java technology. It promises to be bright.

Allison recalled that it was his company that used to be the main investor in Java technology, they all have 100% middleware running on Java. In the future, Oracle promises to continue these investments in full. The next generation of Oracle business applications (Fusion Suite) will be completely built in Java. And it will be the world's first ERP and CRM package, built on a standard platform.

Moreover, Allison said that Oracle will even develop netbooks and mobile phones for Java! Although this sounds just unbelievable, but in this way Oracle is going to enter into competition with Hewlett-Packard, Acer, Lenovo, Dell and other companies in the netbook market.
