Zusammenfassung:SANTA CLARA, Calif., May 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Sun Microsystems, Inc. (Nasdaq: SUNW) and leading IT vendors today jointly announced growing demand for Java Compatible(TM) and Java Verified(TM) products. To date 19 licensees are shipping Java(TM)2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE(TM)) v 1.3 Compatible products -- up 46 percent from January 2002. Currently surpassing 3.5 million, the number of J2EE Reference Implementation(RI) downloads also demonstrates Java(TM) platform's widespread adoption. The 19 vendors offering J2EE v 1.3 technology compatible implementations include ATG, BEA Systems, Borland, Fujitsu, Hitachi, IBM, IONA, Macromedia, NEC, Novell, Oracle, Pramati, SAS, SeeBeyond, SpiritSoft, Sun Microsystems, Sybase, TmaxSoft, Trifork. Equally representative of this strong demand are the first ever Java Verified applications which have been launched to market recently. The charge is led by six companies including MRO Software, Novell, Ohioedge, Polaris Software Labs, Sun Microsystems and TheServerSide.com. "Java Compatibility is at the heart of the Java community value proposition. We are pleased with the uptake of Java Compatible and Java Verified products as customers ensure they buy 'real' Java," said Mark Bauhaus, vice president, Java Web Services at Sun Microsystems. "Sun plays a leading role in maintaining and evolving the Java platform with and for the Java community through technology innovation and market-leading implementations based on Java standard specifications and industry adopted standards. We will continue to support Java Compatibility as the only way of delivering the true promise of "Write Once, Run Anywhere." This key feature of Java Compatible/Verified products eliminates the risk of vendor lock by offering a standards-based foundation to accomplish platform independence with minimum development costs and maximum ROI."
