At the core of the Java ecosystem is the JVM. Most people talk about Java the language,
and this may sound odd coming from me, but I could hardly care less.
What I really care about is the Java Virtual Machine as a concept, because that is the
thing that ties it all together; it's the thing that makes Java the language possible;
it's the thing that makes things work on all kinds of different platforms; and it
makes all kinds of languages able to coexist.
In the standard non-JVM world, people have lots of different languages,
but it's really hard for them to coexist.
They all manage memory differently.
They all manage their sub-routine calling sequences differently.
In the non JVM world being able to go back and forth between languages is almost impossible.
In the Java world it's remarkably straightforward.
I mean, there are some issues, but it’s remarkably straightforward to write a
piece of your program in Java, a piece of your program in JavaScript and a
piece of your program in Ruby. You can make things as God-awful as you want.
It does kind of allow people to create incredible messes. But on the other
hand you can use languages that are appropriate for the task at hand,
and different languages are better at different things.
Java happens to be a really good language for a broad spectrum of topics.
