We as an information technology company use Oracle Java SE to develop various tools and services for our clients. We develop applications, software, and endpoints to bring the clients business and information in the world of the web. Using java design patterns we are writing codes for designing servlets, interfaces, and endpoints to expose and fetch the data to or from the third party system, implementing spring framework to develop a power web portal. Java is one of the great open-source backend programming languages.
- Platform independent, robust and secure programming
- Auto memory management using garbage collection
- Huge number of framework available for development
- Oracle doc can be improve more in detail
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

Oracle Java SE is evergreen
Score 8 out of 10
Vetted Review
Verified User
Across the organization JDK is used, microservices development is the key area where JDK is used. All kinds of businesses like data modeling, file read, logging, email processing, API calls, different libraries written using SE are used to solve many implementations challenges. [Oracle Java SE] is used for any latest and greatest platforms available in the world.
- Lot of coding has to be done in case of [Oracle Java SE] compared to python
- Memory optimization
- Mathematical operations in short codes
- Graph and network related libraries should be added

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

Modern language with an outdated UI toolkit
We use Java in our main application for physics simulation. Until it became a paid license, we shipped our product with Oracle Java SE. Now we ship with AdoptOpenJDK, but still, support using Oracle Java SE with our product.
- Supports multiple platforms
- Supports modern concepts such as streams and functional interfaces
- Good tooling available (IDEs, debuggers, profilers, etc)
- No ability to automatically clean up resources such as via destructors in C++. End users must explicitly invoke a method (e.g. close, dispose) to ensure resources are freed in a timely manner.
- Garbage collection can introduce pauses at runtime (although this is improving)
- Memory leaks are sometimes difficult to find due to automatic garbage collection
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.

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

Oracle Java SE Review
As the most used backend programming language at our company, we use Java, (or Java-based solutions) daily in our company. Most of the time we use it as the backend modules' main language, sometimes other extensions for smaller problems, like desktop-apps as JavaFX, or web apps, etc.
- It's a robust, widely used, well-documented programming language
- It's platform-independent.
- Easy to learn, read, extend, use, etc.
- Lately, the development of the language and the licensing policy cast some shadow over the language among our customers.
- Modern, competitor programming languages tend to implement new, state-of-the-art things a bit faster.
- Lombok plugin :)

Java: a workhorse of business applications
Java is the standard language for writing applications in an enterprise. Its dominant use is in writing business applications, but also for developing tools, particularly those that deal with databases and data. It is also used for Big Data applications, where the JVM allows for the use of other languages in the ecosystem. For example, Scala and Kotlin.
- Mature platform.
- Variety of enterprise-grade libraries.
- Easy to find and hire developers.
- Great performance.
- Less verbose code.
- Lighter deployments.
- Inclusion of modern language constructs (as found in Scala and Kotlin).

Awesome for the financial industry
It is a great software that we use in the software development department to help in developing software's for the banking industry. It is simple and easy to manipulate in order to come up with a running solution in the runtime environment. The solutions are very valuable to many different financial institutions thanks to this great software.
- It is open source.
- It is available to many types of operating systems i.e. it is cross-platform and cannot be limited to a specific OS.
- It is very stable.
- I have not found any con of Java SE.
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.

Java, Compile Once, Run Forever
Java SE is used by the organization I work at, as the preferred language of development of all of our products. We currently use Java SE 1.7, and are in the process of upgrading to latest version 1.8. It's used throughout the company, in all departments.
- It's extremely fast. Programs execute with lightning speed.
- It's platform independent. A piece of code written on windows can be executed on UNIX systems without any extra effort.
- It's simple and stable.
- It has powerful IDEs like Eclipse and NetBeans.
- It has a huge active community, which helps in coding and support.
- There are a lot of code libraries available, with comprehensive documentation.
- It's strict on syntax. Programmers switching from some other coding language, need guidance and time to get used to Java.
- There're bugs in some Java default libraries, like Swing.
- Lack of garbage collection on resources other than memory
