JavaOne Roundup
By: Tim Del Chiaro
Abstract: A review of JavaOne including Borland announcements, survey results, and press coverage
Borland general session summary
The Sun web site has a good summary of the Borland general session, Making
Development a Team Sport. Borland CTO Pat Kerpan and chief
architect Rick Nadler presented a lot of great information. Many people
who stopped by the Borland booth after the session mentioned how
excited they were about Borland's vision, the sneak peek of JavaServer
Faces and team refactoring in the next version of JBuilder, and the
other solutions that Borland offers.
Borland Announcements from JavaOne
Borland Product Usage Survey
Thanks to everyone who stopped by the Borland booth and completed our
survey. It's great to have details from more than 1,000 of you on which
Borland products you use, how you use them, and what you like about
them. Here are just a few examples:
- A major aircraft company told us how the abilities of Borland
JBuilder to automate J2EE tasks and integrate with their version
control system helped them build a knowlege management system and
monitoring and control system.
- A leading internet networking provider told us how they like
Borland Optimizeit
performance tools because "they are fast, compact, and they work."
- A video surveillance vendor told us how the total roundtrip
engineering capabilities of Borland Together ControlCenter helped them
build their video streaming and control system.
- A number of consulting companies told us how they build
everything from retail point of sale systems for restaurants to
logistics systems using a combination of JBuilder, Together, and
StarTeam
- Borland products are used by retailers of all sizes from a chain
of dollar stores building apps to move merchandise between stores to
one of the largest retailers in the world
- Financial institutions use JBuilder to deliver online loan
applications, risk analysis, trading apps, financial transaction
management, internet banking, online credit card applications, and even
a commodities exchange built using Borland CaliberRM, Together,
Optimizeit, and StarTeam
- Government customers who were often unable to tell us what they
build beyond "data management" or "sorry - classified" were able to
tell us that they are impressed with the ease of use, reliability, and
great support that they get from Borland and our products.
