Basic
Features and Advantages of Java those are helpful even today:
Primarily JAVA is known for its Object Oriented approach of
programming. Now object oriented programming basically means modular,
flexible and extensible approach to any problem statement. This is
dealt swiftly in Java.
Abstraction, Encapsulation, Polymorphism and Inheritance
are the aspects of Java which gives way to above approach. Class is
an entity in Java which provides the above mentioned features. The
Private Data Members are examples of Abstraction and the Member
Functions accessing the Data Members is the process of Encapsulation.
Method Overloading and Method Overriding are the tools to achieve
Polymorphism, which is capable of performing various functionalities
under the same nomenclature. Abstract Class and Interface gives the
flexibility of choosing Selective Inheritance or complete
Inheritance, which enables a programmer to leverage reusability. This
is extremely vital for Java
developers
in developing modern era web applications or desktop applications
using Java.
Java
for Modern web solutions: Storing data and rendering the data
intermittently is an important aspect of programming. For example we
have data in a data base and we want to display it on a page. Now we
can’t rely on variables to hold those and display, which will
become absolute redundant. This is handled generally in Java with the
Collection frame work. It provides us Interfaces which can
hold the data and based on the requirement it lets us to use the
same. Even after gathering the data we might need manipulation like
data in ordered/Sorted/Random manner. Java provides interfaces of
collection frame work which can also deal with these aspects. Eg.
ArrayList(ordered data), TreeMap(Sorted data), HashMap(Random Data)
etc. This will definitely help in creating dynamic web applications
for the next generation users.
Multithreading
is highly efficient feature of Java for big data and heavy user
applications: At times we are thrown with challenges which
demands parallel execution of operations, few operations are to be
prioritized and a few to be just operated on the basis of sequence.
Multithreading is one of the aspects of Java, which gives us
immense control over this. In a practical situation like we want to
manipulate the data in the database in synchronization with the
accessing the data. A simple class called Thread or an interface
called Runnable can handle this so seamlessly, we can’t even find
the difference in execution. It can be used for developing modern
forums, social networking sites etc.
Java’s
MVC design is simply awesome: Developing Websites is one of the
important aspects of this era categorically supported by Java. Java
Server Pages aka JSP is the component of Java, which helps
developers to create dynamic WebPages for a Website. This enables
developers to add Run time display logic in Website along with HTML
codes, which helps the developers to process a Display Logic
independently. MVC: Model View Controller. This remains the
heart of the architecture of any developed/matured application or
Website. As the name suggests these are three different layers which
help the developer in loose coupling. This essentially means
independence in code formation. Model: Data and Method of
accessing data. The bean classes and its setter() and getter()
created in java are the example of Model. View: This renders
the Content. Also once the model is updated it changes the view
accordingly. JSP is the View layer. Controller: Action
classes are the Controller which takes care of the action
initiated by the end user. This MVC pattern of development is
seamlessly supported in Java and it works like a boon for the
industry.
Implementation
of Java in Latest Technologies: In this modern era of paramount
data, it’s not only difficult to store data but also to process it.
Now we have arrived at a stage where we are not dealing with
Gigabytes or Terabytes or Petabytes but in the scale of Zetabytes.
The latest technology of the BigData stores data efficiently with an
idea called Horizontal Scaling. After storing we need to
access the data with an efficient and quick manner. This is handled
with a technology called Map Reduce developed by Google.
This uses cascaded collection framework of Java for this
implementation. The whole world of BigData and Map Reduce is built on
Java. Off late people are demanding Zero down Time while accessing
systems/websites. So the technocrats has developed a concept called
Cloud Computing. Now basically all the applications and
websites are hosted on a cloud and worked upon. This basically
eliminates any threat of downtime, which could have easily been
encountered had it been a localised server/Machine. E.g. SalesForce
is CRM platform which runs on Cloud. SalesForce has become
the heart of the solution for the CRM these days. Almost all the Java
classes are extended or utilized in the development of a SalesForce
application. Most of the Portal Technologies like
Liferay,Weblogic,Websphere,Webcenter etc are implemented with Java.
Content Management Systems like Webcenter Sites or Adobe Experience
Manager are also using Java as the programming language. Almost all
the Mobile games are developed in Java. The applications available in
any of the smartphones these days are developed with Java.
Java
for Automation Testing! After successful implantation of Product
or Website also we need to test that Product/Application properly in
order to avoid glitches. The famous and robust Testing technology in
today’s market uses Java for Automation testing. Selenium is
one of the renowned and hot Testing technologies in the market now.
This gives the opportunity of testing a dynamic site with automation
frameworks. These frameworks can be developed in Java, as the API and
classes are extended narratives of Java. Java
has always been a popular language since its inception and we don’t
see that popularity going down in near future.
