Google has pulled out all 17 of its presentations from the upcoming JavaOne conference in San Francisco. Yes, it's because of that lawsuit. This is what Reuters has to say about it.
Unless Oracle and Google will settle on their little issues, JavaOne may be dead. Or to say it properly, JavaOne will fork, bit it'll never be an event that would gather 10,00-12,000 ENTHUSIASTIC Java developers under the same roof.
I'm still going there and, on return, will share with you what kind of vibe/energy I've experienced, if any.
I know this guy who should consider this as an opportunity and create large conference, an alternative to JavaOne. He knows how to do it.
In general, this Oracle/Google dispute may turn into a birth of a new language created by Google, which will make java obsolete like COBOL.
Now there are 17 empty slots to be filled with substitute speakers. I'm wondering who's going to be a substitute presenter for the annual Java Puzzlers by Joshua Bloch and Neal Gafter?

By Elizabeth White IoT is rapidly becoming mainstream as more and more investments are made into the platforms and technology. As this movement continues to expand and gain momentum it creates a massive wall of noise that can be difficult to sift through. Unfortunately, this inevitably makes IoT less approachable for people to get started with and can hamper efforts to integrate this key technology into your own portfolio.

Discussions of cloud computing have evolved in recent years from a focus on specific types of cloud, to a world of hybrid cloud, and to a world dominated by the APIs that make today's multi-cloud environments and hybrid clouds possible.
In this Power Panel at 17th Cloud Expo, moderated by Conference Chair Roger Strukhoff, panelists addressed the importance of customers being able to use the specific technologies they need, through environments and ecosystems that expose their APIs to make true change and transformation possible.
The current age of digital transformation means that IT organizations must adapt their toolset to cover all digital experiences, beyond just the end users’. Today’s businesses can no longer focus solely on the digital interactions they manage with employees or customers; they must now contend with non-traditional factors. Whether it's the power of brand to make or break a company, the need to monitor across all locations 24/7, or the ability to proactively resolve issues, companies must adapt to the new world.
