what next for Powerbuilder developer -- Java or .net

[Former Member]

Hi guys,

I have been working in Powerbuilder tech for last 10 year and now I find myself at a cross road to upskill myself as jobs have dried up in UK for powerbuilder projects. I have got another year before I hit the job market. I am totally confused as which direction should I go. Java world or .net side. Most companies in UK are moving away from PB product and jobs on offer are with little dev work and more of patch work. It looks only dev work happening in PB is in US.

Guys any suggestion will be really appreciated

thanks,

This is my understanding, if you used PB more than 10 years that means you are a master in programming in general..You need to think really careful before you make a move.. I used PB 15+ years and recently changed my job.. I don't use PB at my new job as of now..  But I read everyday about PB and waiting for official announcement from Appeon.. I am sure that PB will rock the market soon.. That's my hope..

Regards,

Jahir.

Estamos a la espera de un nueva Version de Power Builder Urgente, la empresa donde laboro esta a la espera, ya el Señor Mazda dio luz verde

Sí, me ha sorprendido mucho que PowerBuilder no estaba en la lista, ya sea!  

Sería bueno para obtener una respuesta oficial de SAP antes de julio 1 2016 (25 cumpleaños de PowerBuilder) al mover la responsabilidad del producto a Appeon!
