Sun comes out with their own RIA

Following the growing popularity of RIAs like Flex, Microsoft had made their announcements about Silverlight.

Now, Sun has announced they are coming out with their own version of the RIA platform.

I was a bit surprised at this. Microsoft, I did expect to jump into the boat and wasn't that surprised that they were going to open source part of Silverlight.

But Sun coming out with Java FX (yes that is it's name!)... I didn't really see coming.

I wouldn't think that it will take over this market, but then again, you never know.

One thing is for sure... the competition is growing fierce.
