Career future in J2ME

hi,
i have joined a software company as a fresher and working with
J2ME technology since last 6 months.I have got some feedback that
leading companies don't work with J2ME.
Can anyone say / rate ( out of 10) the future of J2ME in coming 4-5
years?? will it be benificial for my career to continue with J2ME?
regards---
Gyan

Well Guys, i'm working in J2ME technology for last 2 years. As i See the future is there. If you look in terms of Gaming, J2ME is For better than other technology. yes if you want some interactive client/server Apps then C++ is best (Symbian).
Microsoft is Also doing well and growing in this mobile industry as well.
ok, as for as companies are concerned there a lots of companies which are developing their apps in J2ME and Symbian.
I hope you guys heared about SavaJE OS for mobile devices (complete OS was written in JAVA/C++) and its gonna be release soon, and the uderlaying artechture of development is J2ME.
Well, one thing which learned in this experience is keep updating urself with different technologies, like Symbian, Windows mobile and Pocket PC's, overAll mobile industry as well. dont ristrict youselves in J2ME API's.
Because the Future is Mobile Computing...

The future of J2ME?

Hi, I read at the following address:
http://www.croftsoft.com/library/books/javagame/
that the author foresee that J2ME will become obsolete in a couple of years being replaced by regular J2SE/J2EE applications. I'm studying for the SCMAD and this article worried me a bit. Obviouvsly I wouldn't like studying something which is becoming obsolete.
What's your vision about the future of J2ME?
Regards,
Marco

They are all right. Any technology is bound to become obsolete sooner or later. But at this moment, J2ME is still in it's development stage and for the moment, shows no sign of slowing down. So like the previous person, I would think you'd definitely be able to make use of it before it gets trashed. And technically, no matter if it becomes obsolete, I still do not believe that any learning is wasted.
And if that doesn't convince you, think about it this way: J2ME is a subset of Java, and even if phones do evolve enough that they are able to support J2SE (which imho, is not going to happen for quite a while.... ), what you do with J2ME will not be gone to waste.
Programming for mobile devices is quite different. Although knowing Java is a huge advantage, there will definitely be things that need to be implemented on mobiles which are not needed in J2SE. So knowing J2ME gives you a good basis on these special implementations. Besides, after doing some work in J2ME, you'll learn all these optimization techniques that are not as important in our normal PC programming, which will benefit you in any type of programming.
The question you should ask yourself first is whether you're interested in programming for mobiles. If so, don't let one author's prediction stop you. Personally, I think his prediction is a little ambitious. Mobiles are progressing, but to be able to handle the entire J2SE, for the moment, that's wishful thinking. It will eventually happen, but i don't think it'd be anytime soon.
Cheers.

Career in Database kernel development

How is the career future in Database kernel development, such as index, locking, transaction managements?
It seems to me that the DB kernel is quite stable. Are there many opportunities in this area?
Thanks.

There are only two companies that likely will require those skills in the near future ... Oracle and Microsoft and I would expect they don't hire more than one or two new people a year.
Doesn't sound like a promising direction but if you are truly interested contact Oracle HR in Redwood Shores.

Help to find a career in ORACLE for future

Hi All,
I am working in an MNC for last 3 years and have experiance in SQL , PL/SQL and unix.
I am not able to decide where to move further in ORACLE .
Should i go for OCA certification(developer or administrator track) or is their any Functional certification which wopuld be helpful for me as i
strongly desire to grow now.
Please guide me a way thru as i am confused to choose.
I am new to the portal all suggestions are highly appreciated.
Regards,
Lakhani

Note there is a certification forum. This forum is for feedback about the forum community.
Also, there is a search feature, and you can also use google to search this site, try a google search like so:
career site:forums.oracle.comOnly you can know what is good for you. My personal feeling is that jobs in the future number in descending order: functional, developer, dba. But again, your desires, abilities and other experience are more important than how many jobs there will be.
"Oracle" is a huge field, there are all types of opportunities. If you are in some huge company, you probably can find our what your opportunities are. What kind of reputation do the DBA's have?

Need advise on SQL,plsql developer career and future

Hi all,
I need all your advise in making an important decisions of my career path.I work in the IT field and have about total 4-5 years of work experience involving development and testing in a product based organization.
Presently-i have got chance since last 4-5 months to work with writing PLSQL code,SQL etc on a part basis. I am very much interested to continue my career path as a PLSQL developer.
But, unfortunately -in the total of my work experience-in the past 2-3 years-i worked with a internally developed DB query language(similar to SQL) and then from last few months with plsql. But this chance to work with PLSQL has been for less time and limited scope after which i will have to work on something different.
Ii want to fully take on my career in SQL,PLSQL as Database Developer.
Please advise me if my thinking seems logical and good and if I could do it. I have planned on applying for relevant SQL,PLSQL profile jobs.
Now, My serious worry and concern is I feel that since i have worked very less with PLSQL-so am low in confidence that I feel i wont be able to answer ,or tell or not knowledgeable enough to be able to clear the technical interviews for SQL,plsql development profile which would need at least some years of experience.
I have started studying and practsing PLSQL,sql by myself for from internet. So, can you all please advise me on how could i prepare myself for hard core technical interviews of SQL,PLSQL knowledge for about 2-3 years expertise.
I know its not much possible to be competent so much in the subject by just studying and practicing.Its easy as saying to study and get it by myself-but i want to try and will put my best for it.
Please help me with your inputs,all interview questions,hard ones-suggestions,links,any study materials, real time problems which i can try solving of SQL, PLSQL development.
Thanks All

Hi,
A very good starting point is (in my opinion): [Steven Feuerstein PL/SQL Obsession|http://www.toadworld.com/Knowledge/DatabaseKnowledge/StevenFeuersteinsPLSQLObsession/tabid/153/Default.aspx]. Also the official site [PL/SQL Technology Center|http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/pl_sql/index.html]

Shipment costing following requirement must be met
1. you must mark shipment as relevant for shipment costing
2. the shipment must have the required total status as set in the definition of the shipment cost type
3. the shipment must have a transportation status of at least planned
4. shipment must have a service agent
5. customising for the shipment cost pricing must be set
spro-- logistics execution-- transportation- shipment costs-pricing- ( this setting)
6. finally condition records must eb maintained
CALCULATION OF SHIPMENT COSTS
1. By using the transportation planning point, service agent shipment cost item category and shipping type the system determines a pricing procedure for shipmetn cost item
2. the system determines shipment costing calculation basis for the individual condition types in the pricing procedure ( eg costing carried out per container and stuff)
3. then normal condition record is searched in pricing proc .
Hope this gives clarity to your question

Please Help me in my game career

Hi,
I have completed my graduation. I am very much interested in developing games. I have developed some 2d games using java and i am crazy about playing games. Now i want to start my career in game development by programming in Java. Can any one please help me how to approach for my goal.Currently developed one small game now wats my next step can i switch to java 3d games or J2ME. Please help me about my career.....Waiting for your reply...

I have found a much more heinous malady that seems to becoming more and more prevalent in the industry today, that is:
Hiring a young wannabe and drain the life out of them with overtime, no pay, with the promise of getting experience; and yet, when called to ask for a reference and explanation of what the intern did, they say, "..just some occasional basic entry stuff anyone could do."
That comes across to me as an interviewer as--he did some light computer related tasks and nothing note worthy. My team is still going to have to coddle him and we'll be a year or more bringing him up to do some of the most basic tasks--truely still entry level.
But in reality the intern did a huge amount of coding for them, in many cases actually took the place of an experienced programmer--this intern is not being paid on top of all of this--and developed an application or portions of an application that the company expects to make sizable profits--the intern does not share in the profits like everyone else, they volunteered to do this for the experience--and then they only get a marginal recomend while the company has padded their profits long into the future with significant aid from the inter's genius and diligent labors.
I have never seen an "internship" that had "unpaid" associated with it in the technical field--Computer Science and Engineering--that was worth it and didn't turn out to be a scam on the part of the "employer" to get a lot of work done for free. Even 20+ years ago, an intern made a decent wage when working in a technical field.

How to: IT Virtualization career with VMware as rock-solid foundation

Hello all,
I'm considering exactly what the title says. I've spent the better part of the past month reading/watching about the topic. I mainly researched the VMware product line (really, an ecosystem), along with Certification paths. I'm leaning towards the main DCV dish, with a side of CMA as needs come by. I am now building some sort of 'plan' for myself, contemplating the next 2-5 years or so with a VCP6-DCV goal in mind. There are a number of questions I need to ask to the actual pros, though. (highlighted in bold for anyone wishing to skip the following wall of text)
First of all, I'm heavily questionning my background. I wish it were enough to dive deep into vSphere right now, but is it? I mean, beyond VCA... I like to think "I can do this, I'm good admin material, I know it", but would an employer see it through the same lens? Probably not. My question is, would you hire ─ at the bottom of the IT/VMware ladder of course ─ this individual? Here's a quick, honest-to-god profile (please skip if you wish as none of this italic part speaks of VMware).
I'm 32, male, I live in France (but plan to move abroad to a more dynamic region, in terms of technology and the economy in general).
My 'official' pro background in IT is fairly limited ─ back in 2005 I trained & worked (at the same time) for about a year and a half on general admin/network. So, mostly windows 2000-2003-XP, general IT concepts; we had an HQ with about 30 users and 30 distant sites (car rental company present all over Paris), everything VNC'ed to the server room which hosted a dozen Dell Edge something (distant profiles etc.). Applications such as MS Office or credit card payments (Wynid) were served virtually through Citrix, and I had the opportunity to even run it at home in my lab to learn. It was back in 2005, but the basic concepts of networking, directory management or virtualization seem pretty clear to me, even as of 2015.
At that time I was young. Well, younger, at least. When I realized that what needed fixing weren't really the computers but the users (j/k... or am I?), I cut short my IT experience and did other, unrelated jobs, even spending some time back at the university to learn law and a bit of sociology (political theory, social interactions, things like that). Enriching, and I can use all of this to fuel my vision of technology, but now I want back in IT as a professional. It's an obvious vocation I've been ignoring for too long.
Ever since my teens, I've been dabbling in computers.
Learned Dreaweaver 3 with a bible in just over 3 months and made my first website back in 2000.
Since 2005 I've always had a windows server at home ─ it seems like it's not really my home unless it's a domain. I've been sharing coffee daily with ADDS ever since.
I like starting from scratch, designing and building entirely new IT systems (my home is my lab) every other year.
All my hobbies, at some point, got "computerized". For instance I learned everything I could about metadata for media/content files, from the Dublin Core principles to real-world popular DBs schemas (MusicBrainz notably) passing by actual implementations on my system, just because I need my music and video files to be properly sorted and browsed "smartly", you know... Also built a few home audio/video studios setups for friends...
Many people around me come to me for advice on technology, of any kind ─ I like science and tech, always reading up the latest and greatest, and apparently able to research what I have yet to know. I get good feedback on my advice, more often than not.
These are just a few examples of a trend in my life that says "I don't work in IT, but on a daily basis I spend a few hours, often having actual fun, with geeky-IT tasks, even just reading".
I'm extremely thorough by nature. Reading and carefully understanding, checking and applying a Best Practices whitepaper is often a paradoxical treat to me ─ it may be somewhat boring come page 14, but it's just beautiful when a system runs close to perfection, I often find a deep motivation for these ironing-out/optimization tasks. I'm also very practical, down to earth. I love ideas, I get my good share of it, but ultimately what matters to me are actual results ─ though I never rush things unless I have to, I'm infinitely patient with a project. I spend hours designing, testing (seeking real-world proofs-of-concept) so I don't mess up in actual production. I like things neat, sober and efficient, from variables to comments and names passing by external documentation ─ which I highly value, probably stems from my research-oriented mind. I do document my home setups to some degree!
Do these things matter? Do they help me, along with these certifications, or is my professional IT inexperience, at 32, the end of that road?
From what I've read, I'm fairly confident that with the right self-traning, hands on, I have a shot at VCA6-DCV. Practical questions:
I can get a good book, I can get online training, I probably can build a decent lab for virtualization at home. But how can I get hands-on with the software?
Evaluation doesn't seem like an option since it's limited in time.
Unless, maybe, one can get several trials as long as everything is freshly reinstalled. Being a lab we obviously don't care to break everything every 60 days or so, but does it work like this with VMware trials?
Is there any way I can run a non-productive fully-featured VMware ecosystem at home, just for the sake of training? (note: I'm willing to pay for that right, just can't or rather won't afford $2000 licences of course, I'd rather spend that on training classes)
I've discovered the fabulous VMware Hands-on Lab.
Is it really free, unlimited?
If yes, I suppose that's the recommended way to get hands-on VMware products?
Should it be the only way, how can I verify that my practices are good in the long run (days, months, years...) if I can't run the systems for more than a few hours? My understanding of IT is that making things work at first is only the prologue to a long day-to-day care and management of systems and apps, and I wouldn't want to miss that kind of understanding with mission-critical infrastructure such as virtualization. Seems like the mother of all critical-to-monitor and analyze/report/optimize etc. That doesn't happen in a few hours. I find myself puzzled by that apparent contradiction between training and real work.
Now, let's assume I pass my VCA6. Then what? How do I go from there to VCPx?
With my rather unconventional background, as seen from IT, can I land a level 1 vmware admin job if I get a VCA6-DCV? (I'm doubting, thus also considering maybe VCA6-CMA as well, to demonstrate *more* motivation and skills). I mean, are these VCA's even remotely enough, or should I brush up, say, on my Windows server/system admin and get a basic certification there before I aim at VCPx VMware certifs?
Assuming I manage, eventually, to have a job involving VMware datacenter products (ESXi cluster, vSphere, vCenter etc.), I understand that 2-5 years worth of pro experience are recommended to consider VCP-DCV. I assume a motivated individual, training at home on top of work, getting involved socially with the community and so on, would probably fall in the lower end of that range. From your experience, is being hands-on at work 'enough' to truly understand and master (read: work skillfully with) VMware products? (again, with VCP in sight) I'm asking since, more often that not, you don't touch critical settings, unless you absolutely have to, in a prod environment (for instance, if my company, back in 2005, hadn't allowed me to run citrix at home for a few months for training's sake, I just wouldn't have gotten my hands dirty enough with it to be able to administer it, later on this job). Which leads us back to my previous questions about hands-on in a lab environment. Which lab, where, and how?
And importanly enough, about how much would it cost me, overall, from VCA to VCP, including one mandatory class, and the necessary long-term hands-on training?
Sorry for such a long post but I wanted to hear back from the community with enough understanding of my situation. Please be frank and don't hold back, I need to hear the truth about my chances at this, and the sooner I realize how to proceed, the better. Currently, I'm beginning to train on ESXi and vCenter Server (awesome products, btw!) Any help in reaching my VCP endgame will be greatly appreciated, so thank you in advance for any light you might shed on my path.
PS: I apologize for any english mistake, it's not my mother tongue.

Thank you very much for your answer.
I think I do hear you. Assuming I can clear that first step you suggest (get a job supporting a company IT infrastructure, probably at the desktop), then I need to ramp up towards servers and eventually, it's somehow up to me to either help bring VMware to that company, or join another one where VMware is already present. And, as usual in business, ROI/TOC is the sinews of war. I suppose VMware, as a global IT leader, is somehow built on that premise. All of this makes a lot of sense to me. I think it will help me when making future choices. Very practical ideas are already popping up in my head.
I think, for now, I'll focus on
getting that first job in IT infrastructure,
while training for my VCA at home.
Then see from there. Regardless of my job, I can probably keep on self-training towards VCP ─ it never hurts to learn, and ultimately it may help me make the best out of a required class training.
Just a follow-up question, specifically about VMware and security. I'm digging this way because, thinking of your suggestions, here's one aspect of IT in particular that seems a very good bet to me. Here's the context in France (and several european countries):
Studies show that small and medium-sized french businesses (SMBs, up to 250 employees) have mostly missed the digital revolution of the last decade or so. The root causes go deep, as there are about 100,000 IT jobs available in France because of a lack of skilled workers, and the general population shows very poor technological culture overall. Thus, there's a lot to do in the backend to ease that necessary transition (cue for newcomers like me, willing to enter this market, I suppose).
More specifically, there is a huge need for security, which is, too often here, nowhere near acceptable standards. It would be easy to blame IT departments, but they in turn blame their CEOs for not understanding the issue ─ whose main reasons for negliging security are often misconstrued or outdated perceptions: increased cost, tediousness of the end-user experience; but more often than not, it's just blatant unawareness of the risks.
I think VMware delivers very good solutions to this issue.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I understand that virtualization brings a layer of abstraction that makes it inherently superior, from a security perspective, to physical equivalents. And I think it's obvious the end-user experience, should it be different, is better virtualized than not. Therefore ─ you see where I'm going with this: if I had to show a company how VMware is interesting, not only for saving costs or ease of management/deployment, but above all in terms of security, what would be the main selling points, specifically? Also when training myself, which products, which specific designs or implementations or features, in the vast VMware ecosystem, are key to security if I want to bring that to my company? I'd like to have my eyes on that from the beginning. Basically knowing what to say when, one fine day, a manager/recruiter asks me: "how would using VMware be better for our security?" or "how will sponsoring you for VCP-DCV help us in this regard"? (again, rather from a small or medium-sized business perspective)
I'm thinking SSO, vShield and vSECR from the top of my head, but I confess the whole set of VMware server products and features is still a bit overwhelming to me. Obviously I'll do the bulk of research myself, I just need a few pointers.
Thanks again for the inspiration and support!

Background jobs are scheduled in future date

Hi
A system which is used by a customer test system was installed and scheduled the jobs in 2010( in future date).
Now we have changed the date to current date. But still all the background jobs are in future date.
There are around 500 jobs are scheduled. And it not possible to reschedule one by one.
Is there any way workaround to change it back to current date format.
Best Regards,
Jai

Dear Jai,
The jobs scheduler should have this dates changed to current. If its a third party system which are running these batches, then be careful to convey the same message to the 3rd party.
If its in SAP, then the schedule change date should execute your jobs. At the same time, ensure that the transports between the test systems match to the destination.
Do let me know for any clarification.
Thanks

The future of java and what is the most necessary skill to learn

hi, friends,
This is a serious question, so please answer seriously.
1. The future of java
Are there any future for java? What I mean are: are there any jobs for java developer in the future? are there any chances for new java company to survive?
2. What is the most needed skill in so many java technology?
There are so many sections in java technology. so what is the most needed one for one to find a job? what is the most promising section for one to build a company.
Thank your very much!

It's a lousy question really.
1) There are very few companies you'd call a 'java company'. There are companies that use java, but they also by and large use C++, DBMS systems, and a whole host of other technologies. If java died, they'd switch to whatever technology killed it. Any decent programmer is flexible enough to learn a new language in a matter of weeks. It's the ability to work with the theory behind the code rather than the knowledge of syntax that's important.
2) It depends entirely on what you're doing. Working with a company where databases are key? Then you need Oracle, or SQL. Working with web technology? Perl, JSP, PHP, stuff like that is what you want. Working in high performance application design? You need C++. Graphics? Take a look at OpenGL or Java3d.
The most promising section to build a company? If there was a straight answer to that 1000 companies would have sprung up already and filled the niche.
Basically, if you want a successful career in programming, don't become a java programmer, become a programmer full stop. If you think you'll be working with java when you retire in 40-odd years you're mistaken. You need to grasp the basic concepts of application and algorithm design, and be quick to learn new technologies and evaluate them against what exists already.
It can take 3 years to go from complete newbie to fluent in a single programming language. It can then take less than 3 days to become fluent in another.
