Has the demand of Java taken a hit over the years?

"Java a name that every IT professional is well aware of- It has tremendous power; power of flexibility, power of customization and power of efficiency and speed!! When the industry was dominated by languages like C and C++, Java made a long jump with its in-built functions and high performance object oriented approach. The library of Java is simply superb! Almost everything is there in the library. All common methods and classes are there inside the language. Java is no more a language rather it is treated as a technology. A technology for every need may it be a machine level programming, desktop application or web application: Java is there to provide utmost quality of service to the industry. Undoubtedly Java is the grand hit in the IT industry; let's find out how it become such a hit in the industry.."

Java is Superfast: The core of Java is nothing but a large number of libraries containing different methods, classes, and modules that enables the Java developer in building quick software applications without much effort. When we are saying quickly; don't compare it with any other web domain specific languages like PHP or .Net because they never come near to Java in terms of quality or reliability. It is quicker than C and C++. The important part is Java is extremely fast i.e. a Java program runs much faster than its counterpart. Hence Java is always preferred for top notch applications that need high resources and database communications. Almost all banking applications, data driven web or desktop applications are built in Java for its superfast and highly optimized engine within its core.

Java is highly secure: Security matters a lot for the success of any application or product. Java is compiled languages i.e. the source code get compiled to byte code i.e. machine level codes and then get executed by the interpreter. It is to be noted that, once the code get compiled to Byte code, it cannot be trapped easily since it is in the form of 0 and 1. Hence, all sensitive applications are developed in Java as it provides industry best security service to the host.

Java is efficient enough: Java having a large number of methods, classes and packages becomes a tremendous technology for the industry. Again, those components are highly optimized and re-optimized for higher and better efficiency. When these methods are being used in the application, we can simply expect exceptional quality of efficiency and pace from the application. Moreover, Java used to be connected to Oracle database with ODBC and this couple can do any wonder. The in-built power of Java when combines with the highly productive database of the industry; the result is simply splendid one. Isn't?

Java is for every purpose: Java was developed to challenge the C and C++ and then it was mostly used for hardware programming. Later on, it get accommodated with the industry in developing quality applications or products for the Windows machines. That time Windows was at its golden era; everyone wanted to develop their application windows friendly. That time, SunMicrosystem's Java takes the advantages of Windows and enables Java to produce high end windows application development. Again, when Web industry gained popularity, Java introduced JSP- a platform for Java based web development. Followed by, game development and embedded system development and modern web apps and native apps. We will discuss them in detail below.

Java for modern web apps: With the release of latest Java version from Oracle, it is cleared that, Oracle is well aware of the future browsing device and well conscious about the same. Java a technology which has been serving the industry through a wide spectrum starting from Hardware programming to web application development as per the requirement of the industry as when needed; this time it has again proved its eagle eye over the changing environment of the industry. Industry is flooded with smart devices and major OS manufacturer giants like Google, Apple and Microsoft etc are giving their maximum effort to make their smart operating system smarter enough to attract the user. On the contrary, Java's JSP is well prepared to fight in the battle field. Java JSP is heavily equipped with modern technologies like HTML5, CSS3, jQuery, Bootstrap etc to design and develop enterprise standard responsive web apps that will impart similar user experience irrespective of device screen resolution and platform.

Java for android apps: A Java developer can develop light weight yet efficient android apps without much hassle. Though for android app, we need the code in APK format; but it can be achieved with the help of intermediate third party software that will convert the Java code to APK files. Because, in Android OS, there is no JVM and hence we need to run an application in the native APK format. Apart from, Android we can also develop enterprise standard efficient iOS apps using Java.

Java for game design: Game design has been always a premium area forskilled Java Developers. Though with the introduction of flash, the demand gets little fluctuated; but again Java powered by HTML5 can build light weight games for different platforms in fact, for every platform. With HTML5 canvas, JSP developers can build robust cross platform games that will definitely mesmerize users with its graphics intensive screens yet light weight.

Java enables you in building enterprise standard application development to meet future demand: Java being the most up-dated technology of the industry enables its developers for building rich Java applications throughout its life. With the latest release, it again proved its clear vision to serve the industry for another few decades. Java is well equipped with different modern amenities to build highly efficient and marvellous web applications that can be browsed in a wide range of devices with a wide range of constraints like memory constraints, screen size, device hardware power etc.

And, Java is the most popular technology in the industry since its inception: Considering all above features and a clear vision of Java, we can foresee a brighter future ahead for Java in the industry. Its flexibility nature that has enabled it to stay in the continuous success path till date will definitely make it a winner in the industry again. In fact, Java is already having the burden of being the most popular technology of the industry and hence it will be forced to continue the same popularity in the industry as a challenge. Fortunately, Java wins the challenge this time as well just like all its preceding versions!!
