The ServerSide Interoperability Blog BizTalk integration server now :: Microsofts interoperability push with Sun, Novell wizards that help BizTalk Server to talk with Web services-based applications http://tssblog.blogs.techtarget.com/2007/09/13/biztalk-intserver-now-net-30-enabledHOME | Microsoft and Sun are
scheduled to talk about their platform compatibility, spokespersons with
both companies said Monday.
It's been eight months since the companies celebrated the end of their legal war with a
landmark
$1.9 billion settlement of long-running charges against Microsoft involving Java.
Sun had charged that Microsoft "deceptively modified Java APIs" in a beta version of the Microsoft Software Development Kit for Java by "adding Win32-specific and other APIs to the Java class libraries." The result, Sun's lawsuit said, effectively caused developers to believe they were achieving cross-platform interoperability between Java-based and Microsoft platforms.

In a conference call scheduled for this
Wednesday, Sun CTO Greg Papadopoulos and a yet to be determined vice
president with Microsoft will update press and analysts on their
progress so far.

A Sun
spokesperson said the two companies would not mention any advancement
focused on compatibility between Microsoft's Active Directory and Sun
Java Enterprise LDAP Directory. The call is also not expected to include
mention of development between each company's single-sign-on Web service
(define).

small team of engineers, was supposed to be on the call, but will not be
making an appearance, a Sun rep told internetnews.com last week.
"It is really sort of a progress report, and this is just preparation
for the future," Microsoft representative Jim Desler told
internetnews.com. The two companies had promised some type of
update before the end of the year.
Already some progress has been made. At the time of the April
announcement, Sun signed a license for the Windows desktop operating
system communications protocols under Microsoft's Communications
Protocol Program. Microsoft said it would continue to provide product
support for existing Microsoft Java Virtual Machine in its products. Sun
and Microsoft announced Windows certification for Sun's Xeon servers and
said they would move forward in the Windows certification process for
Sun's Opteron-based servers.
At Sun's Solaris 10 launch earlier this month, McNealy commented that
Microsoft and Sun were working on technology that would benefit both
data centers and the desktop.
The CEO hesitantly commented at the time that the integration project
is "more complicated and detailed and extensive than I thought they were
going to do."
McNealy also hinted this past summer that Gates and Papadopoulos were
making StarOffice "even more interoperable" with Microsoft Office. Other
important goals of the 10-year pact include improving interoperability
between the Java Desktop System and Windows, improving interoperability
between Solaris and Windows servers, and bringing the company's
respective Web services architectures, .NET and Java Web Services, into
closer alignment.
