Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
Sun has flagged the release of its Java update at the upcoming JavaOne conference, which commences on May 16, claiming it is the most significant update to the program development platform in years.
According to Sun, one of the big features of Java Enterprise Edition 5
(Java EE 5) will be the ease of development. Sun wants to encourage
more developers to use the platform and has indicated that it wants to
encourage greater adoption amongst the Linux development community by
changing its license. The pundits say expect partnerships which will
include the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) with Linux distributions.
Another
big feature, designed to make Java EE 5 relevant to the current web
services development evironment of today is its ability to connect with
and enable development from AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML).
AJAX is the latest development tool for delivering applications like
wordprocessors via the web with comparable performance to what you
would expect on the desktop.
However, one area where Sun is
still holding out is the question of making Java an open source
development environment. The open source community are not holding
their breath for any such announcements next week at
JavaOne.
