Silicon Valley is all OSS/Java.
ElasticSearch, Hadoop, Cassandra, HBase, HDFS (mixed with C).
Newer infrastructure for big-data are either Java, Scala, Clojure (one or two tools).
Some of the startups also use Java (not all). I rarely see C#. So yes, C# is not catching up yet.
Sorry, Eclipse + Ecosystems (that include plugins/integrations and whatnot) = beats VS any day (with or without pants). And if you have money, IntelliJ is right around the corner circling VS.
I think people don't realize that comparing the Java and .NET requires dragging the community, the platform, the tools, the plugins, and everything else in-between.
I granted in Windows/Desktop .NET is the king. Everywhere else it's the other way around by a long margin.

- edwinnathaniel 12y agoPeople keep saying that Microsoft/.NET is "big" in enterprise but I have not seen real data. If by "enterprise" you meant WalMart bought ten thousands license of Windows 7 OS for their workstation then sure... But let me offer a different point of view: SAP, IBM, Tibco, Oracle, Salesforce (not too big yet but they are entrenched), NetSuite (same level with Salesforce), Workday. Mostly Java...
- amalag 12y agoMaybe it is the mid-level I am thinking of. The transition from active directory server to sharepoint intranet to .net web projects is pretty standard for many companies. An unscientific search on indeed.com results in 38k for java developer and 27k for .NET developer. Deploying .NET to linux is pretty huge.
