Java or .Net – Which is better for your career?
Most of the prospective beginners in software development have been asking this question for a while. Whether Java or .Net is better for their career? To begin with, both Java and .Net could be considered as robust frameworks and both kind of application are very much in use for complex projects. Java is a programming language that is on a success path ever since it has been introduced where as .Net could be defined as a framework that supports several programming languages such as C# and VB.Net etc. A framework offers a pool of ready-to-use functionality whenever code is being written by making use of that framework.
The success in Java or .Net as a career depends up on how soon you are able to learn the programming language. If you ask, which among the two are easier to learn, then there is simply no answer to it. The only answer, it depends! For some, coding in C# would be far easier than understanding Java whereas for some mastering in Java would be much easier compared to learning .Net.
When it comes to careers in Java or .Net, there are immense opportunities available across the IT industry for both the positions. But gone are the days that you find designations on demand with title ‘Java Programmer’ or ‘.Net Developer’. Instead nowadays the designations vary from J2EE Developer for those who have mastered in Java and C# Developer and SQL Server expert to name among a few for professionals mastered in .Net framework. You should always be open towards learning the new technologies both in Java or .Net and keep enhancing your knowledge irrespective of what career path is being chosen. Both Java and .Net was able to maintain the demand for so many years and the demand will continue to be there in the coming months and years even though we could not predict which among the two would have an advantage over the other.
Instead of worrying about which among the two is better for future, why not enhance your skills to become a part of the future trends? Rather than sticking only on a single programming language, it is better to master on one programming language and being an expert on a few other programming languages. The knowledge in other programming languages will help enhance the logical skills and thereby implement logic and thus making you comfortable to work with any programming language, tool or framework within the shortest span of time. This means if you go ahead with Java as your career, do not be hesitant in learning .Net and if your current job position demands you to learn C# and ASP, learn it.
