9 Reasons Knowing Java Gives You An Edge

Despite attention getting headlines that talk about the death of Java, Java is alive and well and a great programming language to know.  Here are 9 reasons why Java is the place to be in 2012 and beyond:

  • Java is the #1 language for enterprise development
  • There are more Java jobs around than any other
  • Demand for Java Developers is HUGE
  • Java is a stable language that lets developers create well-structured code that is easy to maintain
  • Oracle estimates there are more than 9 MILLION Java developers worldwide
  • Oracle estimates there are 3 BILLION devices that run Java
  • Because of Android, Java is one of the most popular mobile development platforms
  • Oracle puts the percent of enterprise desktops that run Java at 97%
  • There are 115 million television devices now running Java

If you are currently a programmer and would like to get in on the demand for Java Programmers, then you can jump straight into Java with Java 6 with Swing and Servlets.   Once you have mastered Java, you can jump right into Android Programming.
