A recent survey of 731 Java developers by Perforce Software identifies key productivity barriers, including documentation (41%) and communication issues (38%). Despite 51% of respondents indicating plans to hire more Java developers, only 34% reported intentions to increase their tooling budget, illustrating a trend towards doing more with fewer resources. The complexity of application environments is rising, with 64% using microservices, and many teams are modernizing their application architectures. Challenges such as prolonged startup times and slow remote deploys also persist amid these transitions.
"The results of the survey indicate that organizations are facing significant challenges in Java application development, particularly in documentation, communication, and timelines affecting productivity."
"Despite recognizing the need for better tools, only about a third of organizations are considering increasing their tooling budget, which raises questions about resource allocation in software development."
