Tweeting Computer and Technology

Java is a high level object oriented programming language (similar to C++) developed by Sun Microsystems. The programming language was originally called OAK before Sun Microsystems changed it to Java in 1995. There are three types of Java platforms: Java Standard Edition (Java SE), Java Enterprise Edition (Java EE), and Java Micro Edition (Java ME). Each of the platforms has their own language version, a set of standard libraries, and a virtual machine to execute the code.

Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition, or j2ee is a popular server programming platform in java programming language. The name of this platform changed to Java EE in version 5, and the newest version is Java EE 6. The difference between Java EE and Java Standard Edition (Java SE) is that Java EE has libraries that give the ability to deploy multi-tier Java software mostly based on modular components that are running on an application server. One of the benefits of Java EE is that it is available for free. It can be downloaded from Sun Microsystem’s website. (more…)
