ORACLE JAVA SE ADVANCED

By including both Hotspot and Oracle JRockit VMs in a single Oracle product, Oracle Java SE Advanced brings intuitive, user-friendly tooling and monitoring to the enterprise. In addition to the powerful tools provided by Oracle JRockit Mission Control, Oracle Java SE Advanced contains enterprise features only available through Oracle such as auto-update turned off, service tags, and usage tracking.

  • Provides an intuitive, user-friendly management console
  • Enables monitoring and management of multiple VMs through a mission control management console
  • Includes dynamic memory leak detection
  • Provides a JRE that gives you a better view and manageability of your enterprise, for example non-auto-update, service tag, usage tracking
  • Includes Oracle JRockit Mission Control and JRockit Flight Controller

ORACLE JAVA SE SUITE

Mission-critical applications require the highest levels of performance and agility; even a slight increase in latency can cause data to become stale and useless. Oracle Java SE Suite provides predictable and lower latency, which is beneficial for high-frequency-use environments.

Oracle Java SE Suite includes:

  • All of the features of Oracle Java SE Advanced
  • Oracle JRockit Real Time, the industry’s fastest JVM
  • Deterministic garbage collection
  • Low, single-digit millisecond response with a five 9s reliability guarantee
  • Improved application performance and latency with unique tooling
  • Latency identification and resolution

BENEFITS

  • Provides access to the world’s two leading VMs—HotSpot and Oracle JRockit—enabling you to choose the right tool for your performance needs and profile
  • Includes Java binaries created by Oracle's Java experts
  • Enables you to introduce and enforce new types of service and service-level agreements
  • Enables you to lower operating costs through more proactive operations
  • Improves competitiveness through enterprise agility
  • Accelerates time to market with low-latency customer applications through increased developer productivity

In addition, Oracle Java SE Support includes Oracle Premier Java Support, which gives you access to Oracle's world-class, 24/7 support and to top Java developers within Oracle.


OPTIONS FOR CURRENT JAVA SE LICENSEES

Current Java SE licensees can:

  • Use the traditional Java SE free-of-charge—as you always have—on public versions of Java SE; view the support and EOL timeframes
  • Purchase Oracle Java SE Support and enjoy Oracle Lifetime Support as well as updates on older releases dating back to Java SE 1.4.2
  • Stay on an older Java SE update at no cost (i.e. 1.4.2_17); Oracle provides an archive to older Java SE release families but no further updates will be added to Oracle’s Java product archive
