From chrome to Adobe Author: Rayong Hao (http://blog.csdn.net/lanphaday) Chrome + Android =?

Google launched its own browser chrome, which takes root of its services such as Gmail, reader, and Doc. As chrome comic books have said, traditional browsers cannot meet Google's own "abnormal" JavaScript Application needs. In fact, this is particularly prominent on mobile platforms (such as smartphones. Higher execution performance, coupled with Chrome's concise appearance, seems suitable for mobile platforms.

If Chrome is connected with Android, Google will be more confident on the mobile platform. When the android prototype is coming soon, the chrome PC version can be regarded as a test. The popular chrome, in theory, brings more success opportunities to Android.

Flexibility

With the increasing popularity of Web2.0-related technologies, not only does Google's Ajax technology attract more and more attention, but even radical RIA development technologies such as flex and Silverlight are also widely accepted. Especially in China, due to the rise of web games, Flex is like sunrise, with unlimited prospects.

Unfortunately, Adobe does not have its own browser. Although the flash plug-in installation volume is close to 100%, flash will certainly be subject to many restrictions on other platforms, such as the performance of Flash plug-ins. Just like Google launched its own JavaScript Engine V8 to improve JS execution performance, Flex may also improve performance on its own browser, making it a real 3D engine is not impossible.

What makes Adobe and flash fans the most uncomfortable is that the mobile platform does not have a good support for flash, regardless of Nokia's Symbian, Google's Android, Ms's Windows Mobile, or Apple's iPhone. Smartphones must be the largest personal computing (work and entertainment) platform after PC. Fans of Adobe and flash cannot tolerate the embarrassment of running flash on mobile phones.

To the corner of Adobe

From the acquisition of Macromedia, we can see that Adobe is very interested in the Internet. But in the past few years the changing situation has become too fast, not only difficult to turn around the MS ship, adobe can only be feeling the stones across the river. Flex is a successful product for Adobe's transformation to a development platform company, but apart from whether Adobe is determined to make full efforts in the development platform field, I am afraid Flex is not easy to hold the market share of the current web development platform environment.

One is in the PC browser field, MS has IE, Apple has safari, Google also made a chrome, Adobe nothing. Second, on the mobile phone platform, Microsoft has Windows Mobile, Apple has iPhone, Google, and Android, and Adobe still has nothing. The two most important highlands in the Web development field, Adobe does not have one foot on the top, these manufacturers are standing down, the machine gun swept Adobe had to shrink in the corner to steal security.

At this time, Adobe may not be able to quit. It has two options: one is to launch its own cross-platform browser, which directly supports flash and eats n operating systems of PCs and smartphones; the second is to build a mobile platform based on the built-in smartphone operating system and compete directly with Symbian, Android, Windows Mobile and iPhone.

IPhone app store has been proven to be a successful model, Nokia, Google and MS will certainly follow up, If Adobe appetite is large enough, it should adopt Google's strategy, push the browser and mobile OS at the same time.

Oh, don't forget sun

Sun is worth mentioning in his Java and javafx. The launch of Android actually shows that Java can definitely make a difference in the mobile field, javafx, coupled with MS Silverlight and Adobe Flex, has always attracted our attention. Sun is similar to Adobe, and sun is even more embarrassed, because at least Adobe's flash market shares are extremely high, and Sun has no products to reach this level. Probably because of this, I think Adobe may still have a chance, and sun can only sell the server back.
