I can't speak for Java/Python development but I do a lot of JavaScript in Cloud9. Its a cloud IDE that got purchased by AWS. Pretty smooth setup and if you're already in AWS already you can take some advantage of existing services that hookup to Cloud9.

I have tried codenvy and codeanywhere. Had lot of trouble get going. Most of the times I see tons of error messages in the js console. Thanks for suggesting me this article.

Are you subscribing to cloud 9 or is it part of your company's toolchain?
