5. SOFTWARE USAGE LEVEL (HOME/INDUSTRIAL
USAGE):-
Netbeans used at home as well Industrial problem. Netbeans is developed using JAVA for
coding application can be developed using

Modules that are a set of modular software components while using Netbeams platform.

8. FUTURE ASPECT:-
Its been two years since Oracle announced the donation of the netbeans surce code to the
apache software foundation .This wave was much more than a licensing change it was a bit of
a new beginig for Netbeans:

The Netbeans IDE is well liked at INT, in fact, INTV Viewers is built on top of the Netbeans
IDE with the release of Netbeans 10,

 BETTER LICENING:

Under Oracle’s stewardship, the NetBeans source code was available under two
licenses: a Common Development and Distribution License (CDDL) and a GNU General
Public License (GPL). The CDDL is not well known, and the GPL sometimes carries stigma.
The license move is a clear win for the platform as Apache is appreciated in the Java
community for its business-friendly license and ubiquitous libraries.

 OPEN GOVERNANCE:

The Apache NetBeans project is still “incubating.” The incubation process allows the
foundation to assess whether the donated code complies with legal standards and how the

community adheres to Apache’s guiding principles. These principles are centered around
openness and collaboration. You can see it at work on NetBeans’ own website: all
communications are recorded and shared. This is actually a requirement from the Apache
foundation to use mailing lists. No conversations behind closed doors. No secret agenda.
When decisions are made, you can see how the consensus was built. The NetBeans project
didn’t just get a “new home,” it inherited a renewed philosophy, a new process, moving from
“open source” to “open governance.”

 ONGOING SUPPORT:

Oracle has been a significant contributor to NetBeans in the past. Despite the spin
off, Oracle’s contributions continue to this day the NetBeans project received in June a
second code donation from Oracle, a donation that will enable JakartaEE projects. Two years
ago, observers were worried that Oracle might be “abandoning” NetBeans to Apache.
However, the last two years have proved that Oracle still intends to spend resources on
NetBeans.
