SUMMARY:OrlandoJUG ::: Programming Platform Growth: Table Stakes or De
 al Makes?
DESCRIPTION:Hello Java Enthusiasts! \r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nYou're in for
  a treat! We have a great presentation coming up, Here are the details
 .\r\n\r\nProgramming Platform Growth: Table Stakes or Deal Makes?\r\n\
 r\nThis talk draws from Ed's 25 years of professional programming expe
 rience, spanning many languages, operating systems, and platforms, to 
 survey what it takes to make a programming language platform successfu
 l in terms of widespread use. Ed will look at Java, Python, Node, Go, 
 and Swift and evaluate the ingredients that brought each one its own f
 orm of success. Finally, Ed will draw some lessons that apply to anyon
 e trying to grow their computing platform, because, at some level, we 
 are all in the platform business.  ## Purpose of the Talk  IT practiti
 oners are often faced with platform selection choices when building so
 lutions for their customers. The set of available choices is always su
 bject to lots of churn and chaos. This talk looks at what separates su
 ccessful platforms from others in terms of how each one deals with tec
 hnical and non-technical concerns.  ## Target Audience  * Architect le
 vel developers who are faced with technology selection choices.  * Dev
 elopers who want the platforms they are building to be successful.  ##
  Audience Takeaway  Success is never an accident, and when it comes to
  programming platforms thare are many checkbox-type things your platfo
 rm must have to ensure success. But implementing these things requires
  lots of grit, determination, and polish. \r\n----------\r\n\r\nEd Bur
