Hello, all!
We have an ongoing discussion about using Java in the future to revamp some or all of our applications running on or with the iSeries. Some people keeps bringing up the notion that all the companies that tried moving to Java on the iSeries failed, and that nobody uses Java in the enterprise.
Is that the case? Is that an obsolete notion? I think that there are many companies using Java for their companies on Unix and Windows machines, but I'm not so sure about the iSeries.
I know that few would attempt building a business application with Java from scratch on the iSeries, but there are many tools and applications using and generating Java these days.
What is your experience (if any) with them? Should Java tools, applications, or generators, be discarded as options to revamp our COBOL/Synon systems?
Thank you all for your opinions.
