Java
hosting is considered as one of the most popular and important
hosting since java platform is very popular and java application can
run on any kind of server irrespective of the linux and window server
. Java has achieved many other landmarks also like it has several
frame works (struts,spring, hibernate etc.) which are very useful for
developers point of view despite of the several technological
advances . Here are few reasons why you choose java hosting . unlimited hosting is one of the good options and is replacing shared hosting these days .
Frameworks
– Java has good and easy frameworks which are used by developers to
develop application like struts , spring , hibernate .
Accessiblity
– Java has good accessibility and has no issue with the linux and
window server . Java applications are platform independent and can
run on any server .
Large
infrastructure – Java platform has large infrastructure like it
has developed its own java server pages which is similar to microsoft
active server pages . This is used in creating dynamic web pages
irrespective of the platform and host .
Platform
of tools – the tool which is used in creating java application is
platform independent which is one of the major advantages of the java
application . The java tool uses java virtual machine which convert
machine code into byte code and thats why it is platform independent
.
Libraries
and extensions – Java has a very rich library and extensions which
is helpful for the user to create the application easily on java .
Wide
acceptance – java has a wide acceptance . Many programmers can
handle their problem with java platform and can able to solve them .
Language
– java can provide assistance to non java programmer also . Java
codes can be use by several other programming languages like ruby ,
python , selenium etc .
Scalability
– Java has a good scalability feature . It means by the time you
realise that your application or software need to be extra big , you
can code accordingly .
But
since java has so many advantages, doesn't mean that it don't have
drawbacks . Some of the major drawback which java is facing are
listed below .
Can't
work on shared hosting – Since Java application are so big and
contains a lot of extensions the application are really and big and
can consume a lot of resource which are impossible in shared hosting
. Experts suggest that you need a dedicated server if you are having
java platform .
Deployment
– deployment is another issue in shared hosting if you are using
java application . Since they are having a shared server you don't
have that access of restart on demand . Many hosts provide on demand
restart and some of them have some fixed time to restart everyday .
So deployment becomes tough .
Virtual
private servers – The problem with virtual private server is that
you share a same physical machine with all the users and the
performance depends on how and what they are doing .
One very important downside to Java that you failed to point out is how easy it is to hack it. There is not one person I know that leaves Java enabled in their browsers. Anyone that knows the potential risk does not leave Java enabled in their browsers. Knowing this why would anyone choose this platform for anything but perhaps a game? If I go to a site that uses Java if I do not know for sure who they are and they want me to enable Java, I would rather leave and that is the position of many people. Leaving your target audience very limited. Unless you have a very, very good reason to use Java DON'T!
