Jini
Technology Enables You to Simply Connect
|
|
|
|
We’ve talked
about what Jini technology is; now let’s take a look at what Jini technology
does.
|
|
|
|
Like all the
best ideas, Jini technology is based on a simple concept. Devices should work
together. They should simply connect. No drivers to find, no operating system
issues, no weird cables and connectors.
|
|
|
|
Yet Jini
technology also introduces some exciting new concepts and capabilities. I’ll
mention them briefly now and we’ll look at each of them in greater detail in
the next few slides.

|
|
Instant On: When
you plug a Jini device into the network, it works. Right away. No fuss. Its
services and resources are immediately available.
|
|
Impromptu
community: Jini software lets all devices work together, so you can create
your own personal network or community--any time, anywhere. Connect your home
appliances so you can control them centrally. Connect your office equipment
so people can share resources. Connect to services from the road. Interact
with other Jini communities quickly and easily.
|
|
Resilient: Jini
technology communities adapt very quickly to changes. As users come and go,
the community lives on. And the Jini
community is always available, while the Service Age allows the systems to be
more tolerant and redundant.
|
|
Special
delivery: Jini services are available on demand, whenever they are needed.
