Eclipse OpenJ9 vs. Sencha

The CLOUD development integrating web applications with web databases definitely needs a fast and memory-efficient platform like Eclipse OpenJ9. The garbage collector and SHARED CLASSES between processes make possible a fast response to the web client and API requests. Eclipse OpenJ9 needs better documentation to explain to the programmers the advantages over other JAVA implementations like HotSpot.

Sencha is suited for:

• Enterprise applications that are really huge
• Development happens on huge teams, on-shore an offshore model, one can divide and conquer by splitting in modules easily
• Budget is not a constraint

It's not uited for:

• Small budget applications
• Not too many components are needed
• Static or less dynamic content based websites
• Turnaround time is shorter and developers have to spin something around in a short duration of time

Incentivized

• Faster startup
• Memory administration
• Shared CLASSES between processes

Incentivized

• It's a complete solution that has a vast array of pre built components, charts and a data-grid based solution.
• Security comes out of the box.
• It's mobile and tablet ready.
• It has a lot of support from the community so solutions are easily available
• You can add your own flavor via theme customizations and built in component extension.

• Marketing to promote the advantages it provides for the CLOUD.
• Documentation to used its garbage collector effectively.
• Documentation to implement the SHARED CLASESS between processes and understand the advantages.

• More default themes
• Biggest community

IBM released the Eclipse OpenJ9 under the Eclipse Foundation and open source thinking about the need for CLOUD development efficiency. Eclipse OpenJ9 could be more suitable if want to develop an API with cloud databases like MariaDB using AWS. The memory management of Eclipse OpenJ9 makes the web performance of API faster. The capacity to run shared CLASSES in a memory partition between processes gives Eclipse OpenJ9 a design advantage over other JAVA SDK platforms.

The main reason we chose Sencha is it’s full stack solution. We have an integrated backend that solves a lot of the infrastructure issues and Sencha was the only tool in the market that has only one library full of components. It is not fashionable to use it, as developers always love new technologies, but Sencha is the best for business applications and has a lot of useful tools.

• Open Source Alternative to Oracle JDK supported by IBM.
• Excellent performance for CLOUD development for APIs.
• Multiplatform (LInux, Windows) Java SDK that runs in a container like Docker.

Incentivized

• Excellent applications
• Very good performance
• Not very used, and developers don't like it at the beginning
