TheJavaprogramminglanguageandplatformhaveemergedasmajortechnologiesforperforminge-businessfunctions.Javaprogrammingstandardshaveenabledportabilityofapplicationsandthereuseofapplicationcomponentsacrosscomputingplatforms.SunMicrosystems'JavaCommunityProcesscontinuestobeastrongbaseforthegrowthoftheJavainfrastructureandlanguagestandards.Thisgrowthofopenstandardscreatesnewopportunitiesfordesignersanddevelopersofapplicationsandservices.
ApplicationsofJava
JavausesmanyfamiliarprogrammingconceptsandconstructsandallowsportabilitybyprovidingacommoninterfacethroughanexternalJavaVirtualMachine(JVM).Avirtualmachineisaself-containedoperatingenvironment,createdbyasoftwarelayerthatbehavesasifitwereaseparatecomputer.Benefitsofcreatingvirtualmachinesincludebetterexploitationofpowerfulcomputingresourcesandisolationofapplicationstopreventcross-corruptionandimprovesecurity.
TheJVMallowscomputingdeviceswithlimitedprocessorsormemorytohandlemoreadvancedapplicationsbycallingupsoftwareinstructionsinsidetheJVMtoperformmostofthework.ThisalsoreducesthesizeandcomplexityofJavaapplicationsbecausemanyofthecorefunctionsandprocessinginstructionswerebuiltintotheJVM.Asaresult,softwaredevelopersnolongerneedtore-createthesameapplicationforeveryoperatingsystem.Javaalsoprovidessecuritybyinstructingtheapplicationtointeractwiththevirtualmachine,whichservedasabarrierbetweenapplicationsandthecoresystem,effectivelyprotectingsystemsfrommaliciouscode.
Amongotherthings,Javaistailor-madeforthegrowingInternetbecauseitmakesiteasytodevelopnew,dynamicapplicationsthatcouldmakethemostoftheInternet'spowerandcapabilities.Javaisnowanopenstandard,meaningthatnosingleentitycontrolsitsdevelopmentandthetoolsforwritingprogramsinthelanguageareavailabletoeveryone.ThepowerofopenstandardslikeJavaistheabilitytobreakdownbarriersandspeedupprogress.

MetadataIssues
Oneofthekeyissuesthatbusinessintelligencedevelopersmustsolveisthatofincompatiblemetadataformats.Metadatacanbedefinedasinformationaboutdataorsimply"dataaboutdata."Inpractice,metadataiswhatmosttools,databases,applications,andotherinformationprocessesusetodefine,relate,andmanipulatedataobjectswithintheirownenvironments.Itdefinesthestructureandmeaningofdataobjectsmanagedbyanapplicationsothattheapplicationknowshowtoprocessrequestsorjobsinvolvingthosedataobjects.Developerscanusethisschematocreateviewsforusers.Also,userscanbrowsetheschematobetterunderstandthestructureandfunctionofthedatabasetablesbeforelaunchingaquery.
Toaddressthemetadataissue,agroupofcompanieshavejoinedtodeveloptheJavaMetadataInterface(JMI)API.TheJMIAPIpermitstheaccessandmanipulationofmetadatainJavawithstandardmetadataservices.JMIisbasedontheMetaObjectFacility(MOF)specificationfromtheObjectManagementGroup(OMG).TheMOFprovidesamodelandasetofinterfacesforthecreation,storage,access,MetamodelandmetadatainterchangeisdoneviaXMLandusestheXMLMetadataInterchange(XMI)specification,alsofromtheOMG.JMIleveragesJavatechnologytocreateanend-to-enddatawarehousingandbusinessintelligencesolutionsframework.
EnterpriseJavaBeans
