Why Java Technology is So Important?

It's the network! With Java technology, the Internet and private networks become your computing environment. Coupled with the power of networking, the Java platform is helping computer users to do things that were previously unimaginable. For example, users can securely access their personal information and applications when they're far away from the office by using any computer that's connected to the Internet; soon they'll be able to access tailored applications from a mobile phone based on the Java platform, or even use smart cards as a pass key to everything from the cash machine to ski lifts.

Why Java technology?

Networks require software that is portable, modular, and secure -- all areas where Java technology shines, because it was designed for use on networks from the beginning.

Who's using it?

More businesse sectors are using Java technology because it connects easily to existing computing systems, lowers computing costs, and speeds software development. It also lets businesses use the Internet to securely connect to their customers, suppliers and partners. And consumers benefit from Java technology because it brings personal, business, and entertainment services to them -- easily and securely -- in many locations and on many different kinds of appliances and devices at home, at work and on the road.
