Mike Gualtieri, an Analyst, wrote an article for Forrester (i.e. the people your boss listens to instead of you) about how Java has outlived it's usefulness as a business language. Troll much?
It's no surprise it caught fire becoming Forrester's widest read and commented article. Mike recently did a followup presentation justifying his claims.
Before you go ditching all your investments in Java, have a listen to the cast. We gathered a panel of on-the-ground industry experts from the Jfokus 2011 conference in Stockholm Sweden (i.e. guys who work for a living) which include:
- Neal Ford - Closure Proponent
- Nick Sieger - JRuby Core Team
- Bruno Souza - The "Java Man"
- Kirk Pepperdine - Java Performance Tuning Expert
Enjoy!
