Sun Microsystems: The Java Problem

Sun Microsystems: The Java Problem 02/09/2003 11:48 AM
This document details the difficulties that keep our Solaris Java implementation from being practical for the development of common software applications. It represents a consensus of several senior engineers within Sun Microsystems. We believe that our Java implementation is inappropriate for a large number of categories of software application. We do not believe these flaws are inherent in the Java platform but that they relate to difficulties in our Solaris implementation.

We all agree that the Java language offers many advantages over the alternatives. We would generally prefer to deploy our applications in Java but the implementation provided for Solaris is inadequate to the task of producing supportable and reliable products.

There's no news like really shitty "air the laundry" bad news. Apparently this is an internal memo of Sun Microsystems that discusses the problems they are having with Java on Solaris.

ORLANDO, Fla -- The GigaWorld 2004 open source session I planned to attend yesterday at 3 p.m. was canceled at the last minute because the presenter got into a bicycle accident, so I decided to check out a "Vendor satisfaction survey" session instead. The one I happened to jump into focused on Sun, and it could have been subtitled, "I don't want to beat up on Sun, but..."

Our IT investment expert, Melanie Hollands, takes a no-nonsense, in-depth look at the current state of Sun Microsystems, corporate owner of the Java franchise and ostensible leader of the Java development community. More than a few people are concerned that after 22 years as an innovator and power player in enterprise IT, that Sun might erode into simply a niche player, dropping out of the same league as Microsoft and IBM in IT power and influence. What's your take on where the house of Solaris is headed? Read on for our writer's assessment ...
