The advent of cloud computing has reinvented application development
for many companies. “That’s the beauty of the cloud,” says Cameron
Purdy, vice president of development, Oracle. “It dramatically improves
developer productivity because they can do what they do best without
having to manage complex development, testing, staging, and production
environments.” The key is to find a platform that doesn’t impose proprietary restrictions or force developers to learn new tools. For example, Oracle Java Cloud Service
is an enterprise-grade platform as a service for building and deploying
Java EE, Oracle WebLogic Server, and Oracle Application Development
Framework (Oracle ADF) applications. “It’s designed to be flexible
and easy to use,” says Purdy. “And it is also a standards-based solution
-it’s not proprietary and there is no cloud lock-in. Developers get
instant access to an enterprise-grade environment for a simple, monthly
subscription.” Oracle Java Cloud Service instances are created with
just a few clicks, so businesses can create a rich application
development environment within minutes. Running on Oracle WebLogic
Server and Oracle Exalogic, the underlying infrastructure also leverages
Oracle Fusion Middleware’s integration with common services. For
example, instances come integrated and preconfigured with optimized
Oracle Database and Oracle Identity Management configurations. Based on
Oracle Enterprise Manager, the Oracle Java Cloud Service console lets
customers easily manage and monitor their Oracle Java Cloud Service
instances. The open nature of the Oracle Java Cloud Service lets
developers integrate through Web services such as SOAP and REST APIs, as
well as use their favorite developer tools, whether they are
out-of-the-box tools such as Maven and Ant or the productivity features
built into Oracle JDeveloper, Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse, or
NetBeans IDE. The service allows for the seamless movement of
applications between on-premise Oracle WebLogic Server domains and
instances of Oracle Java Cloud Service within Oracle Cloud. This
approach allows flexibility to mix and match the use of on-premise
environments with cloud instances for development, test, and production
environments. Visit to learn more and watch videos about Oracle Java Cloud Service.
