From InfoWorld: With Oracle now trying to get back on track with advancing enterprise Java, the company is seeking rapprochement with factions that had sought to advance the platform on their own. The two groups involved are mostly amenable to patching up the relationship.
Oracle's Anil Gaur, group vice president of engineering, said this week he had already been in touch with some of the concerned parties. The two factions include Java EE Guardians, led by former Oracle Java EE evangelist Reza Rahman, and Microprofile.io, which has included participation from Red Hat and IBM.
Microprofile.io even has set out to develop its own profile for microservices in enterprise Java. Gaur said he sees the Microprofile efforts as complementary to what Oracle is doing. "I would like to see somehow them bringing back what they're learning to the Java EE platform," he said
Oracle sees Java EE Guardians one of several Java user groups and communities around the world that the company has worked with. Gaue expressed a desire to "join forces" with Java EE Guardians to help shape the future of Java EE.
