Just ask Forrester, and they'll tell you that the data reveals that Java is still firmly planted in enterprise IT shops for custom-developed applications. Forrester asked software decision makers the question, "For custom-developed applications, which development platforms does your company use?" The answers were as follows:
| Microsoft .NET | 60% | (down from 61% in 2008) |
| Java, Java EE, or J2EE | 54% | (up from 49% in 2008) |
| Rich Interface in a browser | 34% | (up from 25% in 2008) |
| Mainframe or midrange platform | 24% | (down from 28% in 2008) |
| Open source framework like spring or hibernate | 17% | (up from 15% in 2009) |
| Lightweight Web frameworks | 18% | (up from 10% in 2008) |
| Proprietary 4GLs | 14% | (down from 17% in 2009) |
| Other | 8% | (up from 6% in 2008) |
