I'm not entirely sure about that.. Node.js has made huge inroads in the 6-7 years it's been around, and Go is pretty popular in some circles as well. Also, look at how RoR grew. It's entirely possible we'll see a shift towards .Net away from Java as an option for lots of projects.

Especially as the tooling for micro-services and docker (or similar) gain traction moving forward. C# is pretty well supported, and at least here in Phoenix is about as common as Java is... can't speak for other metro areas.

I've been a pretty big node.js fan, and haven't used C# as much the last few years, but I wouldn't count it out. Two years ago, C# wouldn't have been on my radar for a new project, now it's entirely possible, given the opportunity for better cross platform deployments.
