[nylug-talk] Why does "enterprise" imply "Java"?

[Dan Crosta]

I was under the impression that "Enterprise" referred to the ability to
scale to multiple machines, N-tier architectures, load balancing,
distributing processing, etc. I haven't done any work with J2EE in any
really methodical way (some JSP and Servlets a few years back as a side
project), so I don't know if Java really fits that bill, or if that even
has anything to do with the language vs. the environment and programming
practice/convention/architecture. Maybe someone else can speak to Java's
abilities in this regard?
