Needless to say, it is Java, marking its place all over the globe, owing to a number of benefits that it offers and Java Application Development for the simplicity with which it handles programming. As rightly said by Mr. Mark Reinhold, Chief Architect Oracle – “The core values of the language and the platform are readability and simplicity”.
Undoubtedly, it is tough for come across such a flexible and robust application development such as Java Application Development, which caters to both – small devices as well as hug cloud computing frameworks.

A Quick Look Back at Java’s Birth and Development
Considering the release of Java 1.0 as the birthday of this innovative language, Sun Microsystems initially released it for smart devices like set top boxes. It was then adapted by universities as a teaching language, since it followed the Object Oriented concept and offered rich parallel programming features which were similar but simpler than C++. It turned out quite simple yet interesting for developers. It being open source, many projects started using it and increased its popularity. The commencement of Servlets offered the developers a standard API to develop server side apps and increased popularity of Java leaps and bounds. Java, along with its platform independent feature, started dominating the IT industry along with enriched security features owing to its managed memory part.
If we look back over these years, Java Application Development Services have been either on the top or the next, originally witnessing a fight of Java for the position with C and C++ but later grabbing it for long.

How is Java a Key Factor for Growth and Success in Enterprises?
There are numerous reasons why Java Application Development has turned up to be a key success factor in enterprises today. You will hardly find any enterprise which does not have Java somewhere in its success story. Though the reasons may be many, let us glance through some of the most obvious ones, without which Java wouldn’t have been what it is today. Considered to be a ‘blue-collar’ programming language, Java has always been focused for the developer’s comfort zone, by having a least fussy logic and also allowing a simplistic way of writing code with the best understandable coding standards.
Ensuring a backward compatibility support all throughout releases of all its versions, Java has ensured that the code that is compiled once for a specific version will work on the latest versions also. This surely saves up a lot of time, energy and money for developers who are going in for Java Application Development services. It’s tough to find out what Java does not have, when compared to an ideal programming language which can be a favorite of all. Be it scalability, reliability or performance, Java App Development showcases them all, together, in the most comprehensive and dedicated manner. No wonder, with thousands of person years of work and a gain in seniority over years, Java has
turned into a strong solid foundation, which continues to grow, blossom and expand, but leaves its roots untouched and steady. There are big names that are already stuck up to Java and rule their own fraternity, with Java somewhere in their success story – Oracle , Hadoop, Twitter, Facebook and many more.
Unlike other old programming languages, which have faded away with time, in terms of their originality and sturdiness to withstand the ever growing competition, Java has been standing strong and tall, along with a fresh breeze of new technological changes, in each new leap, which strongly addicts developers and enterprises to stick to it and also provides a lot of satisfaction and happiness in using it. Java has continually strived hard to come up with novel features, that not only, bring a big smile of the developer’s face, but brings about a large amount of benefits in the enterprises too.
