The main objective before the developers of Java language was to design and develop such a programming language which can tackle most of the things that C++ offered while getting rid of some tasks which seem to be tedious in the previous languages.
Another main objective was to solve the problem of connectivity between different type of devices. Earlier name of Java was OAK. But meanwhile another language with the same name was being developed by some other vendor so the name was change to JAVA in 1994. James Gosling is known as the creator of the Java Language. Java was publicly released on May 27, 1995.
