Technical Brief:  Java

Java is an operating system independent, object oriented programming language with application programming interfaces (APIs) that service many application domains, including but not limited to enterprise, financial, engineering, and scientific. It offers built-in support for relational databases, graphical user interfaces, image processing, multimedia, networking, internet protocols, web services, XML processing, SOAP, CORBA, and more.

Software applications written in Java can run effectively and efficiently on many different operating systems, including Windows, Solaris, Linux, and more. These applications are portable without the need for platform specific code.

Industry studies have repeatedly shown that applications developed using Java technology have a lower total life-cycle cost due to higher programmer productivity, the stability of the programming APIs, and the lower cost of development tools. These same applications are more robust and have lower defect rates due to Java's built in memory management and run-time error handling facilities.

Java is often used as the back-bone of robust web applications using complementary technologies such as JSP, Servlets, Enterprise Java Beans (EJBs), JDBC, and JAXP, among others.

SilkSpeed uses Java and its associated technologies to help ensure a faster, more efficient development process and a more reliable end product that enjoys substantially reduced maintenance costs. Let SilkSpeed apply our years of Java expertise to your unique project needs.
