.NET vs Java opinion! | | |
Hello, guys.
I need some help to convince the bosses to adopt the .Net in my work. I
really believe that .Net is the BEST option to use, therefore the opinions
must be with no passions.
I already exposed it:
- we are MS-based professionals (large experience in VB, ASP, and some good
experience in .Net on our own), therefore the migration/code quality/bugs
will reach the best results;
- .Net is more faster than Java;
- .Net is more productive
- .The .Net have the best control components. Examples: in Java, poor
layout, some bugs, less recurses (like intrisec right-clicks in textboxes,
amoung other things), and etc., etc.
The bosses exposed it:
- Java is more multi-OS consolidated than .NET, because there are more
sucess cases in Linux and Windows (Java is older) and because MONO is really
young, for now;
- We have a customer (big bank) that wannot permit other technology
different from Java. (to me, it is essencially passion/religion);
- The government from here is adopting lots of Linux OS and requires
softwares that run in Linux.
There are some imparcial researches and comparisions so I can convince that
..Net is the best way?
Thx in advance!

Hi,
Here is a link to a good blog: http://blogs.msdn.com/dweller/archiv...21/232490.aspx
The blog has a link to an independent study of Websphere/Linux vs.
..NET/Windows Server 2003.
Here is the punch line:
"On the same hardware, the software licensing costs on the IBM/Linux side
were $253,996. On the Microsoft side: $19,294." Your bank customer will
probably be interested in those numbers.
Good luck! Ken.

..NET is a great platform and I would certainly recommend it over Java.
However, from the bussiness perspective, if your customer wants Java, do
adopt Java without a hesitation.

But it is a opinion from just one customer.
And, to the future, this customer perhaps will change your mind.

Most of the financial industry uses Java. I don't expect that to change much
in the near future. Even if every financial institution in the world decided
to adopt .Net on Monday, it would still be several years before the switch
was complete.

Not sure how independent it really is - the study was commissioned by
MS according to http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1645550,00.asp
The Middleware Company has a bad record with this kind of thing - their
reimplementation of PetStore for benchmarking purposes was very widely
criticised, for example.

That's certainly important.

At doing what, precisely? .NET is, I believe, somewhat faster for
desktop apps, although Java has been making good inroads in the last
couple of releases. You may also want to consider SWT, which is nice
and snappy - look at Eclipse for a good example of how Java can perform
well on the desktop. On the server side, I doubt there's much
difference between the two.
[color=blue]
> - .Net is more productive[/color]
If you're used to .NET, that's certainly true. Developers used to Java
(and certainly those experienced with the myriad technologies
available) would probably be more productive in Java. Trying to compare
the two in an objective way is *very* difficult, IMO.

Actually, I vastly prefer the layout control you get in Java - and
there are plenty of bugs in Windows Forms too! Don't let your love of
..NET give you rose-tinted spectacles...

These seem pretty much the clincher to me. If they're important
customers, and there's no *overwhelming* reason not to do what they
want, you do what they want.

Why not ask for impartial research so you can find out what is the best
way, rather than assuming you definitely know the right answer to start
with?

Jon,
While I agree with your points, impartial research is hard to find. There
are few truly detailed and well-informed comparisons. Even where reports are
not tainted by sponsorship, they may be biassed by the researchers differing
levels of knowledge of the platforms being compared, or simply by the
personal leanings of the editors of the research. I actually like the recent
Middleware study; it doesn't strike me as particularly one-sided, although
it doesn't "prove" anything being just a single project with specific spec,
tools and developers.
I'd add that developer skills are the single most important factor in the
success of a project. So here we have a contradiction - the customer wants
Java, but the developer has .NET skills. That suggests an open discussion is
needed. Should the developers retrain? Or is the project sufficiently
isolated within the organisation that a .NET solution will work fine? Or is
this the wrong developer team?

You may be right in your technical / productivity assessment (I'd agree that
most of the points that you list are probably in .NET favor, but the
difference is usually marginal, not enough to really win a case), but your
boss is right in his business assessment. If his main customers (big bank,
government) want Java, he has to go in their direction, not against them.
This is just basic business reasoning.
So, if you want to do .NET, you have to choose a software shop that targets
the MS platform, not one that sells to customers who have adopted Java.

The latter was the point under discussion; fortunately I'm not in that
position myself.

While I would certainly prefer to use C# of Java any day of the
week, I'd have to say that your bosses arguments are probably
good enough to override any argument you may make for .NET. If
your software truly does need to be cross platform then Java is a
better choice to .NET. I know about Mono, but Mono isn't to the
point where I would trust my business's future on it.
Furthermore, if your customer (the big bank) is a really
important customer (and I suspect it is), then your bosses can't
risk alienating them over an issue as minor as programming
language used. Before you jump on me saying that the language
used isn't minor, let me remind you that money coming in to the
company to pay the developers is far more important than what
language those developers use.
Mostly, I think your companies' cross platform requirement makes
any .NET language a bad choice for you. It doesn't necessarily
need to be Java, there are other options such as C++ and Borland
Kylix.

But is it entirely unbiased? If not, how much use is it?

Ronchese,
I have seen the statements of your Boss much more, however than it was not
Java but Cobol.
And they where right, Cobol is still used and as far as I know especially in
those environments where the other posters are pointing on. (And than even
much more than Java).
I hope I make my thoughts clear with this?
