I am invited to participate in the Java Certification Day on 21 June in Hong Kong. The talk mainly introduces some new technologies in the Java World, but I think they are not quite useful.
The first talk I attended is “Java Programming with no Java *code*”. The name is so attracting but the content is rubbish. It just introduces how Netbeans creates a BPEL project. It is not really about JAVA programming, it’s a construction of SOA projects.
The second talk is about non-intrusive monitoring using JMX. Other than the introduction of two softwares, JConsole and JFluid, I don’t think the talk is worth attending. And the last talk is on “High Performance Java Technology in a Multi-core World”, it did state how hardward can help to improve the performance of Java applications, but that’s not my knowledge field. That’s why I leave earlier (actually it overruns a lot).
After that, I went outside and proceeded to the promotional counter. After discussion with an Education Manager, I am much clear about my certification path. Personally, I want to take the SCEA exam as a long-term objective. Before that, I will take SCWCD and SCBCD which I did set as objective this year. Thus, I bought two discounted exam coupons and two corresponding ePractice exams. Totally, it costs me HKD2000. The price is acceptable and I hope this is worth and get me to a good career in the next job.
