BUSINESS software maker SAP AG on Wednesday strongly denied a media report that it has decided to back the software development platform based on the Java programming language from Sun Microsystems Inc. over the .Net software platform from competitor Microsoft Corp.
"SAP has decided to use the Java language internally along with our own internal language, called ABAP. But it's important to distinguish that this is not a commercial decision: it doesn't mean that we won't support .Net. We will continue to support both Java and .Net. We are open in that respect," said SAP spokesman Gerhard Rickes.
