I think Java will stay alive as C, java stayed the first used language in a lot of analytics this last year, and even if he falls he will all the time stay in top 5 for a very long year.
Microsoft is trying to make easy what Oracle made it hard and Microsft are doing far better in updates than Oracle, well Java EE/JVM platform is really robust, and pretty widely respected. .NET is not so widely discussed and right now what can make dev switch from java to c# is the visual studio IDE since he may be the best one in the world, so if they make.NET better I guess C# may take first place to JAVA.

What would be next one? Or Microsoft can expand C# market share?

Haha. Recently, I think Microsoft made a lot of awesome stuff such as TypeScript, Visual Studio Code, .Net Core.
