The Java platform is the ideal platform for network computing. Running across
all platforms -- from servers to cell phones to smart cards -- Java technology unifies
business infrastructure to create a seamless, secure, networked platform
for your business.
The Java platform benefits from a massive community of developers and supporters that actively
work on delivering Java technology-based products and services as well as evolving
the platform through an open, community-based, standards organization
known as the Java Community Process program.
You can find Java technology in cell phones, on laptop computers, on the Web,
and even trackside at Formula One Grand Prix races. The fact is today, you can find Java technology just about everywhere!
Business Benefits:
A richer user experience - Whether you're using a Java technology-enabled mobile phone to play a game or to access your company's network, the Java platform provides the foundation for true mobility. The unique blend of mobility and security in Java technology makes it the ideal development and deployment vehicle for mobile and wireless solutions.
The ideal execution environment for Web services - The Java and XML languages are the two most extensible and widely accepted computing languages on the planet, providing maximum reach to everyone, everywhere, every time, to every device and platform.
Enabling business from end to end - Java offers a single, unifying programming model that can connect all elements of a business infrastructure.
The Java Community Process (JCP) is the way the Java platform evolves. It's an open organization of international developers and licensees who use Java technology and whose charter is to develop and revise Java technology specifications, reference implementations, and technology compatibility kits.
