32. MEANWHILE … ON THE OTHER SIDE OF
TOWN

33. JAVAONE 2012
NEWS FLASH
• Java goes out of the browser
– No new investment in Applets
is recommended
– Drivers: Security risks and
the HTML 5 alternative
• Java is not targeted at smart phones (any longer)
– FX will not be an important technology for iPhone, Android
Phone or Windows Mobile Phone
– Reason: Apple, Google and perhaps Microsoft own that
market
– Note: Java ME is (still) very important for feature phones
• Java EE 7 is trimmed down
– EE7 will not do Cloud and PaaS;it focuses on
simplicity, productivity, HTML 5 and quite a few new APIs
– Reason: to meet Spring 2013 release target while taking
necessary time to deal with Cloud requirements
• Project JigSaw (modularization) has been deferred to SE 9
– Modularization is extremely complex; in order to meet the
Summer 2013 release target for SE 8 it was moved out

34. JAVAONE 2012 - TRENDS
• Rich(er) HTML 5 clients that generate/manipulate HTML
– Server side does not render HTML
– Server side provides data through REST/JSON
– JSF components for initial rendering, leveraging JavaScript
peers and connecting to JSON ‘channels’
• WebSockets are rapidly embraced
– Bi directional channel that supports Server Push
– Low overhead channel that allows for frequent, small (JSON)
messages for instant synchronization
• REST-style Services with JSON payloads are frequently used
to build bridges between client (browser, mobile) and server
– XML is to expensive to transfer, create and parse/unmarshall

35. JAVAONE 2012
JAVA STANDARD EDITION
• Java SE 8 planned for late Summer 2013
– Convergence of JVMs Hotspot and Jrockit
– JavaFX 8 replaces Swing as default UI engine
– New JSRs and language features

36. JAVA SE 8 – NEW FEATURES
• Project Lambda - closures in the Java language,
– improved productivity, better leveraging of multi-core CPUs
and bulk data-processing enhancements to the Java
Collections Framework
– alignment with several other ‘modern’ languages
• JavaScript on the server – fully integrated on the JVM with
Java – through Nashorn (20 times faster than Rhino)
– new server side JavaScript engine optimized for the JVM
– on-the-JVM implementation of ‘node.js’ – a popular
JavaScript library
• New date, time and calendar APIs (JSR 310).
• Annotations on Java types (JSR 308), which support the
development of useful pluggable type checkers
• The removal of “permanent generation” from the (HotSpot
JVM)
– which will make its garbage collectors easier to tune.

37. PLANS FOR JAVA SE 9
• The themes for Java SE 9:
– Summer 2015?

38. HTML 5
• JSON support: JSON-P and JSON-B
• WebSocket API and Servlet 3.1
• Project Avatar
• JavaFX WebView
• Easel plugin
– Edit
– Debug
– Preview

39. JAVAONE 2012
JAVA ENTERPRISE EDITION (JEE 7)
• JEE 7 is almost done – release expected in April 2013
– Focus on HTML 5 – and much more
– 10 updated specifications: Servlet 3.1, JMS 2.0, JPA 2.1, EJB
3.2; Bean Validation 1.1, CDI 1.1, EL 3.0 and JAX-RS 2.0,
JSF 2.2
– 4 new specifications: Batch, (J)Cache, JSON-P and
WebSockets API
– Preliminary builds
of GlassFish 4.0
available for
download

40. JAVAONE 2012
MOBILE AND EMBEDDED
• Java may have lost the Smart Phone but can continue to
conquer the embedded world
– Which has billions of devices: feature phones and ‘smart
devices’ such as cars, copiers, multi-media players, smart
meters, sensors, micro controllers
• Latest release: Java ME Embedded 3.2 run time
• Java Embedded Suite 7.0 is a small size bundle including
GlassFish (3.11) and JavaDB.
– footprint around 60Mb and Oracle staff believe they can trim
it further to just over 20Mb
• In SE 9 timeframe (2015) – ME and SE should merge
– And ME is a selected subset of SE APIs

41. JAVAONE 2012
COMMUNITY
• Well, at least the stuff is on the move again
• IBM and Oracle are actually collaborating
– As are SAP, Software AG, Apple, Twitter, RedHat, …
• Great sessions – even from Oracle staff

• Hey, that concert is nice!
• Where is Google?
• Maybe those three hotels are not
so bad after all
• Who is that man with the beard?

42. WRAPPING IT UP

– Live Monitoring Social Media => Collective Intellect
– Real time recommendations => RTD (Real Time Decisions)
• BigData – huge volume, continuous feed

– Structured – Physical (sensors), Medical, IT systems,
Business Process, Logistics (tracking)

45. WRAPPING IT UP: 12C
• Database 12c
