Professionals make sure about standard query language (SQL) elimination from client-side code as well as table & column names.

Professionals use to make simple coding on client side ignoring too many functions and creating classes & function calls.

By using N-tire architecture it becomes simpler adding functionality without disturbing client side code.

Java was introduced in 1995; its syntax is similar to C and C++ and able to run on any java virtual machine (JVM). In year 2007 most of the java technologies was made available free under GNU (General Public License) by the manufacturers Sun Microsystems.

Java language was a planned result of manufactures and they had set certain goals before manufacturing such as language should be simple to understand, object oriented and familiar for everyone. For providing good base it should be strong & secure for the users and high performance execution. Another feature of Java is an automatic memory management, for providing this facility to users manufactures have used “automatic garbage collector” to manage the memory.

Servlet technology helps to extend the functionality of web server. Another quality of the Java technology is its portability that allows the program written in this language to run on any supported operating-system platform. There are number of libraries integrated for the different uses such as graphical user interface library, collection libraries for the database, XML process libraries, libraries for internationalization & localization, integration libraries, etc.

For the past many years java is serving all over the web world with its unique features and it is accepted by developers widely for the application & software development for numerous industries.
