Sun bets on free Java tool | |
|
||
| Time: 19:34 EST/00:34 GMT | News Source: News.com | Posted By: Jonathan Tigner | ||

Jonathan Schwartz, executive vice president of Sun's software unit, told reporters on Thursday that is ready to deliver Java System Application Server 8, the first server software to comply with version 1.4 of Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) . That compatibility with the update of Sun's Java software is meant to make it easier for developers to create applications that work with Web services standards. Previously, Sun charged $2,000 per processor for the application server, which is used to run custom-written Java applications. It will continue to levy an extra charge for add-ons, such as administration and fail-over features. The Santa Clara, Calif.-based company's plan to make its application server freely downloadable without charge is an acknowledgement that basic Java server software is reaching commodity status, in which products are differentiated only by price, Schwartz said. | ||

#1 Bob, it appears that Schwartz doesn't have a clue either! He stated in the article, "It's not clear to Wall Street how we monetize Java," Schwartz said. "(But we) are embracing and monetizing Java in ways that we haven't historically."
It's just another stealth move on Sun's part to rocket their share price from the miserable $4.00 it is now back to $60. Yeah, real stealth#!@!# lol |

no no no, #3, you've got it all wrong...
1.) Give away slow, overbloated underperforming software away for free 2.) Receive tons of orders for faster hardware to accomodate #1 3.) Profit It's working very well so far, as you can see: http://tinyurl.com/v3a3 (link to MSN MoneyCentral chart) |
