SAN FRANCISCO, USA: Committed to providing the most complete, comprehensive and hot-pluggable tools for Java developers, Oracle has announced Oracle JDeveloper 11g and Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF) 11g, components of Oracle Fusion Middleware.

A Java-based Integrated Development Environment (IDE), Oracle JDeveloper 11g provides a unified design and development experience, featuring advanced tooling and visual development for all Java EE 5 standards and APIs; reusability features; Oracle Platform Security Services an integrated security services framework; and support for Java Persistence Architecture (JPA) development.

"Developers are faced with a multitude of technologies and learning curves for building Web 2.0, Mobile and Rich Enterprise Applications, adding complexity and cost  to the development process," said Ted Farrell, chief architect and senior vice president, Oracle.  "Oracle JDeveloper and Oracle ADF address these complexities by abstracting developers from the underlying technologies, providing an immense productivity boost for standards based application development."

Used independently or together, the new releases of Oracle JDeveloper and Oracle ADF enable exceptional productivity by making it easier for developers to create and deploy Java EE 5, Web 2.0 and Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) Rich Internet Applications.

The announcement supports Oracle's strategy of delivering complete, integrated and end-to-end product suites on an open, standards-based middleware and database architecture. Oracle's approach helps customers to simplify computing environments, lower cost and risk, and provides greater choice and flexibility.
