Java Embedded: Market Strategy

With nearly two decades of progressive innovation, Java continues to be the dominant technology solution for enterprises worldwide, and drives an ever-growing ecosystem of over nine million developers. During that time, Java has shipped on over 10 billion embedded devices. These two worlds rarely intersected—until now. Today, companies are considering how they can use intelligent devices—such as sensors or smart meters—to learn more about their operations so they can offer differentiated customer solutions in order to improve revenue opportunities. In the opening keynote, Judson Althoff, senior vice president of Worldwide Alliances and Channels and Embedded Sales for Oracle, will discuss how Java’s device to data center reach offers customers and partners—across a range of industries—significant business advantage by minimizing development costs, testing cycles, and time-to-market, while maximizing application reuse, solution flexibility, and end-to-end security.
