Vendor acquisitions in the technology space - specifically the
acquisition of Sun by Oracle and SpringSource by VMware - can often
lead to speculation and rumors about exactly what these deals mean to
the developer community and Java pros in particular. That's why as
one of the world's largest online Java communities,
TheServerSide.comhas decided to end all the misinformation and get concrete answers
straight from source: the vendors themselves.
That's why we're excited to announce our 3 keynote addresses for the
TheServerSide Java Symposium 2010 in Las Vegas, March 17-19, are
confirmed to be delivered by the "top guns" who have made themselves
available to deliver their unique perspective on the future of Java:
-- Sun Microsystems CTO, Bob Brewin
-- Oracle Corporation's Chief Technologist for SOA, Dave Chappell
-- SpringSource founder
Rod Johnson

http://go.techtarget.com/r/10375906/8490094 - WHY THEM? WHY NOW? -
Oracle's $7.4 billion offer to buy Java-originator Sun Microsystems
puts Oracle firmly in the center of the Java world.
While many developers think that Java stewardship is in stronger
hands now, others worry that Oracle will let popular open source
technologies - like Glassfish, NetBeans and MySQL - fade away. Will
Oracle deliver promised investments in Java and a strong support for
their community?
The future of SpringSource is another issue Java developers asked
TheServerSide Java Symposium to address
this year. About 67% of
TheServerSide.com's Java development community uses SpringSource,
says the site's recent survey. They're asking how VMWare's
acquisition will affect that enterprise Java application framework.
Obviously, VMWare plans to get more involved in application
development. Will VMware create a Java platform as a service? If so,
this acquisition could even change the way some applications are
delivered.
You have questions that need answers. That's why the people who know
the answers: Sun CTO Bob Brewin and Oracle's Chief Technologist for
SOA Dave Chappell - are our TheServerSide Java Symposium Day One and
Day Two keynoters. Then, Day Three kicks off with Spring framework
creator Johnson, who will cover the latest features in Spring 3.0 and
the sought-after details about the VMWare acquisition, Cloud Foundry
and the Enterprise Java Cloud.
