During a recent press briefing, Oracle executive vice president of product development Thomas Kurian (and others) laid out the company's plans for many of Sun Microsystems' offerings.
"Kurian's first priority was to emphasize that Oracle wants to improve the performance of the Java programming language for over nine million developers using it," writes InformationWeek's Charles Babcock. "Oracle wants to 'revitalize' the Java Community Process, the multivendor organization for ongoing Java development. Kurian would do that by 'making the JCP a more participatory process to people from a variety of organizations.' Java, he said, is one of the 'crown jewels' coming to Oracle as a result of its acquisition of Sun."
"Kurian said delivering a new Java runtime is a top priority," writes InfoWorld's Neil McAllister. "Java SE 7 will bring important improvements, he said, including greater modularity, better support for non-Java languages, and better performance, including garbage collection optimized for multicore processors. Many of these features will benefit Java EE, also — modularity in particular."
