Quest For "Unbreakable Java" Unites ABAP & Java

Posted by Hemos on from the its-a-festivus-miracle dept.

jg21 writes "Writing an article about "A Java Server That Never Goes Down" is pure hubris, but a German developer who says he's been "eating, sleeping, and drinking Java" for 8 years doesn't seem to care and his article brings to light the aspects of VM we rarely think of as he introduces "user isolation" and tells about some interesting work SAP in Germany is doing in that area, merging the Java and the ABAP worlds."

    Problem:
    Client side java performance.
    Result:
    Furious users, desk items thrown around, highly visible percieved 'failure', enterprise 'bans Java on client side'.

    Problem:
    Server side java performance.
    Result:
    More money for servers. Vendors happy. IT department happy. Users happy. Enterprise 'standardizes on Java on server side'.

    It's all a matter of what's visible.
