Java Virtual Machines Beefing Up With A New Framework?

By Martin Rolee


When SpringSource was released back in 2004, it was probably one of the most forward thinking concepts at that point in time. The possibility of hosting and running an application that was effortless on memory and could also work without EJB platform on a device as straightforward as a web browser, utterly revolutionized the method app development was approached. However, Spring Framework has grown to be the norm right now and is not as interesting as it seemed in 2004.

The hottest developments in the market are not the Android OS, SaaS, PaaS, or mobile computing. It is Typesafe's Scala, Akka and Play. Several consumers may contend that it is too premature to declare with conviction that these frameworks will prompt a massive move from the Spring framework but it is a known fact that appear to choose Typesafe's products to Oracle's.

At least the ones with the knowledge of using Scala do. When you speak to a Scala engineer, you will be overwhelmed by a barrage of how this framework is more desirable above its competitors (read Java) and how it will entirely take over Java soon.

But we do know that loud champion is not the only approach necessary for success. If you are taking Java training courses you better not abandon it for these newbie brainwashing languages. The rationale behind this is the truth that there have been several related rivals over the years. Nevertheless, Java has stood certain and has not been replaced by those, though a number of the rivals have had their moments.

The latest statement that Typesafe made of the $14 million funding that they experienced might have set some warning bells ringing and we can imagine that it will cause some upgrades in Typesafe's products. However, there are many issues that need to be addressed before we can designate Scala as the new Spring Framework.
