While I was at Sun’s Menlo Park campus, I had the chance to talk with Sun’s Jeet Kaul and Ken Russell. I started out taking with Jeet about the evolution of client-side Java, namely, Sun’s plans to firm up client-side Java after a long run paying primarily attention to server-side Java. Jeet tells us about the spread of software in all sorts of new systems – like your car dashboard – and speaks to spreading Java into those deployment scenarios.
The RIA angle here, of course, is that JavaFX is a large part of this re-doubled client-side effort. As we’ve discussed on RIA Weekly several times, it’s common to see things that feel like RIAs on non-standard devices, be they the obvious of phones or the more esoteric like Chumbys.
Also, check out the second part where Ken tells us about changes to the Java applet plugin that help lay the foundation for JavaFX.
Disclosure: Sun is a client and sponsored this episode.
