From 1st September 10, Sun Certification titles will be changed to Oracle Certification

Just came to know from Oracle website that they have completely integrated Sun certifications with Oracle certification program. The title of certification has been changed. Now Sun Certified Java Programmer will be know as Oracle Certified Professional, Java Programmer.
From Oracle website:

Effective September 1, 2010, all Java, Oracle Solaris, MySQL, Open Office and Oracle Solaris Cluster certifications have been re-published and rebranded under the Oracle Certification Program. This change will not impact any of the exam objectives and with Oracle’s firm commitment to the growth of the program, these credentials will continue to be some of the highest recognized achievements in the industry.

    I think it is one of those last things that where the name of Sun was getting used since Oracle acquired it. Now its fully under Oracle cover.

    Usually here in local market we consider OCP person as a DB professional. Now Java programmer will also be OCP.

    After this, Oracle might try to hire the Inception team to erase memories of Sun from our mind! :P
