Awards and opinion polls are funny things, don't you think? In general, you read them with interest and suddenly you find yourself believing what they're saying. You then go and tell others about them, disseminating the information as the gospel truth. How many times have you found you... Aug. 1, 2000 Reads: 11,458 |

Yes, Virginia, there are still people who think you can build a complex B2B e-commerce Web site using HTML. The good news is, these people are mostly harmless; they'll learn the error of their ways quickly and probably before their projects are too far down the road. There are far more...

It wasn't long ago that many developers didn't know what an application server did. These days it's become part of our common vocabulary. The main reason for this shift has been the rapid growth in the importance of the Internet as a platform for business applications. Without applicat... Aug. 1, 2000 Reads: 11,352 |
Every day more organizations are embracing CBD (component-based development) for its promise of code reusability and, as a result, reduced development effort and faster time-to-market. In addition, Java is quickly being adopted as a standard for Web development. Aug. 1, 2000 Reads: 8,226 |
I'll be the first to admit I was a little reluctant when JDJ approached me about reviewing the newest release of Sun's Java 2 Standard Edition platform. It's a little like asking a Jim Morrison fanatic to review the Doors Greatest Hits CD. Since I spend most of my days working and thin... Aug. 1, 2000 Reads: 12,834 |
Java-based technologies such as servlet and JavaServer Pages enable the effective development of component-based, server-side Web applications.

'J2EE is to Java what SQL was to databases.' That's a direct quote from one of my conversations with software vendors during JavaOne. And I tend to agree with the statement. I spent most of the show talking with people regarding their products, their visions and their strategies. It wa... Aug. 1, 2000 Reads: 12,808 |
Yes, I was in San Francisco last month - but unlike the other 25,000 pilgrims, I wasn't fortunate enough to pay full homage to the Mecca of Java: JavaOne 2000. Instead, I was trapped in somewhat less than invigorating business meetings. I was also in a hurry to get back to Dallas to my... Aug. 1, 2000 Reads: 13,527 |
