Java is the most widely used programming language at our company. The flexibility (OS agnostic), ease of rapid development, as well as the relative high performance helps us react quickly to our ever changing ecosystem (ad-tech). We use Java on all types of applications, from a low latency exchange to a backend web API for a user-facing application.
- The JVM makes deploying across platforms simple
- Widely supported in the open-source community
- Actively maintained and developed
- Very object oriented, hard to use modern functional programming paradigms
- GC can cause performance issues

Queen of OOP--Java
The project on which my team is working is using Oracle Java SE. It is used by all the software developers in the team. We are using different libraries in Java for the front-end and back-end development of the software.
- Highly secure and object oriented
- Exception handling
- Easy integration with other open-source libraries
- No option of pointers in Java
- Memory management is not well handled
We use Oracle Java SE for various purposes including development API Rest Service with Restlet framework, front-end applications with Spring and Spring Boot framework, back-end applications, writing automation test-cases on Selenium using java SE and creating some convenient tools with Java. The Java application is well structured and strictly object-orientation making it easy to understand, manage and maintain.
- Plenty support built into the tool and IDE like Maven, Ant, Eclipse, IntelliJ.
- Strong object-orientation language and clear project structure.
- Wrapper underlines hardware and memory management so the developers can focus on business and implementation.
- It offers a huge library and framework support from third-parties and the community.
- It is hard to manage memory.
- Swing UI module is not good.
- Need time to initiate VM so the startup time is a little slow compared to other programs like Bash or Python.

Can't Go Wrong with Java
Oracle Java SE is is being used by our Software Development team for the creation of the core back-end modules that are communicating with our front-end interface of our main application. We needed a language that was widely supported by external libraries, and one that was durable and secure to use at the enterprise-level.
- Runs on all OS Platforms. Applications made on Java can run on all modern OS platforms. No need to make separate.
- Automatic Memory Management. Java's excellent implementation of a garbage collector clears up memory by removing unreferenced objects.
- Multithreaded Performance. Shared memory areas maximizes the utility of the CPU, accomplishing more tasks than usual.
- Commercial Licensing in 2019. Oracle will charge commercial organizations using Java SE for upgrading to the latest bug fixes and updates. Organizations will now need to either limit their implementation of Java SE or may need to drop it altogether.
- Slow Performance. Due to the all of the abstraction of the JVM, Java SE programs take much more resources to compile and run compared to Python.
- Poor UI appearance on all of the major GUI libraries (Swing, SWT, etc.). Through Android Studio, it is easy to get a native look/feel for Java apps, but when it comes to desktops, the UI is far from acceptable (does not mimic the native OS's look/feel at all).

Really good value in maintainable language.
It is really an usable product. A lot of banking environment depends on it and most of the applications created on the banking stacks are utilizing the product. The developer learning curve is OK and it makes a really good basis for Object oriented programming. I can clearly recommend to learn it as a lot of open positions are there with Java language requirements.
- Server application
- Desktop application
- Mobile applications
- The previous lifecycle update was slow
- The community process was really closed
- The vm was slow to start

Java for Education
In higher education, Python is replacing Java as the primary language of instruction. I'm opposed to this trend. Java can be complicated for the novice user, but the highly organized nature of Java is important for the first exposure to a computer programming language. I don't have a preference for Oracle Java SE over other vendors' versions of Java SE. For my students, the differences aren't significant.
- Well organized introduction to object-oriented programming.
- Intelligently conceived type system.
- Good use of functional features (considering that it's not a pure functional language).
- We're waiting for the switch expression to become mainstream in the language.

Java in early programming education
I use Java to teach an introductory programming course. Java is still currently the best language to achieve my goals. First of all, the course is not about teaching Java. It is about teaching principles of object orientation and of programming in general. Java exemplifies the principles very well. OO concepts can be discussed easily and clearly.
Secondly, in the education space, Java has the best tooling. Python, for example, is also popular in the space, but does not come close to Java in the quality of IDEs and other tools available. If you agree that educational environments really matter, Java has no serious competition.
Secondly, in the education space, Java has the best tooling. Python, for example, is also popular in the space, but does not come close to Java in the quality of IDEs and other tools available. If you agree that educational environments really matter, Java has no serious competition.
- The educational tools available are better than for other languages.
- A very wide range of teaching material and ecosystem is available.
- Great support is available for teachers in the community.
- In more recent versions, the Java language has become more complex. Language features are being added that help professionals, but get in the way for novices.
Java SE was the de facto language at my previous company and was used across the whole organization. It was used to create software
for all business areas from marketing to CRM.
- Java SE has a very strong community behind it so whenever you face a problem an instant search on the internet and you will find hundreds of solutions, code examples and recommendations easily.
- Java SE has tons of open source frameworks built around it, so for any business or technical problem, you can find many frameworks like spring, hibernate, JUnit etc ...
- Java itself is a great object-oriented programming language constantly evolving. It's very stable and constantly receiving bug fixes.
- New features to the language are added all the time like lambda expressions, streams, and pipelines, new API's etc ...
- More functional programming paradigms can be incorporated into Java SE.
- Java could use some more performance increases.
