Do you know WebSphere?

Weblogic, but I understand the concepts are the same. I implemented Weblogic for a B2B.

AIX and Solaris UNIX?

No, but I am a Linux-y kinda guy; putting RedHat 7.3 on a spare box here at home.

OS/390?

Nope.

Are you Java certified by Sun and IBM?

I'm not certified, but I've been programming Java for about 3 years. I'm versatile with JDK1.1 through 1.3. Haven't messed with the 1.4 JDK yet. Anything there worth going into it for?

Can you debug and profile distributed applications?

Of course!

Do you have experience in VisualAge for Java or WebSphere Studio?

No, my primary IDE has been Borland's JBuilder. NICE, does everything the other guys can and then some.

Can you write shell scripts for the UNIX korn shell,

Kinda, what with my Linux hands-on.

write, debug and deploy Enterprise Java Beans?

Of course! I'm deeply into J2EE. Stateful session, stateless session, Entity, Messaging -- what type do you need? I've puzzled through JNDI, written JSP, servlets, applets, even applications.

Do you know MQSeries?

No.

Do you know SOAP, WSDL and UDDI?

Sure! Who doesn't! .NET has some interesting new applications of this technology. System.Reflection gives you a lot of power making assemblies reveal their interfaces to ya.

Do you know mainframe and distributed DB2?

Never touched DB2 but have a lot of time in SQL, various implementations.

Do you know Oracle 8i?

Somewhat, have had a little time on that.

I'm deeply into .NET these days. Java will be seriously challenged by .NET. It is fully web-services aware, is a language agnostic framework, and is a very rich environment. I've been doing C#.NET, ASP.NET (and WinForms), ADO.NET and a touch of VB.NET. VERY COOL STUFF....

I can get you a job paying good money in a Fortune 500 company right now if you know these things.

No thanks; they are paying me too well and giving me too cool a set of technologies for me to want to leave. ;^)

Java will be seriously challenged by .NET.

When .NET offers a legacy transaction system connector framework... When .NET compiles and runs on the mainframe... When .NET offers services that participate in a transaction across distributed and legacy systems... When .NET can handle transactions that move the equivalent of $40billion in one weekend, then I'll look at deploying it into our production environments.

C# is cool for prototypes and functional departmental apps. I can't imagine replacing MQSeries and Java for MoveMoney. I appreciate the enhancements that MS provides in C#, it is way cool with respect to events, properties, etc. VS.NET rocks. But, we live in reality.
