JAVA ADOPTION
Despite ranking as the second favorite programming language among developers (Jetbrains
2022), questions persist about whether Java is growing or fading in relevance. In our research,
an overwhelming 98% of businesses continue to use Java in their software applications or
infrastructure, and 57% of those organizations indicate that Java is the backbone of a majority
(60%+) of their applications. Compound this number by Java-based frameworks, libraries, and
JVM-based languages and it’s clear Java continues to play an instrumental role in the modern
enterprise.
