How .net got so many things right where java did not is a mystery to me, but appreciated (it has its own flaws, of course). Java, in my understanding, is still of core relevance to Oracle, and tied into a lot of contracts that require very little effort from them to maintain. But you are correct in observing that they want to be a datacentre/compute business more and more these days; they may have in fact overcomitted to this due to the AI craze, since shareholders are already complaining.
