Java Virtual Machine is an important Java platform component. It executes programs. Java Runtime Environment forms the on-disk component of Java and creates the Java Virtual Machine. Java Development Kit allows programmers to create Java apps and applets, which can be run and executed using the Java Virtual Machine and Java Runtime Environment. IBM ® SDK, Java Technology Edition, Version 7 Release 1 contains a later version of the IBM virtual machine when compared to IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition, Version 7, while remaining compatible with Java SE 7 application programming interfaces (APIs). Downloads are intended for established users, and contain the latest IBM fixes and Oracle. Java SE 7 Archive Downloads. Go to the Oracle Java Archive page. Thank you for downloading this release of the Java TM Platform, Standard Edition Development Kit (JDK TM).The JDK is a development environment for building applications, applets, and components using the Java programming language.

IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition, Version 7 Release 1

IBM ^® SDK, Java Technology Edition, Version 7 Release 1 contains a later version of the IBM virtual machine when compared to IBM SDK, Java Technology Edition, Version 7, while remaining compatible with Java SE 7 application programming interfaces (APIs). Downloads are intended for established users, and contain the latest IBM fixes and Oracle updates to the Java SE 7 APIs. To take advantage of new capabilities in the SDK, users are encouraged to move to the latest version.

There are two different Java packages in CentOS 7, Java Runtime Environment (JRE), and the Java Development Kit (JDK). If you only want to run Java programs, then you can install JRE, which contains just the Java Runtime Environment. If you are a Java developer, then you will need JDK, which includes JRE and development/debugging tools.

Note: Before you can download code, you will need an IBM Registration ID. You can read about IBM Registration here.

Java 7u11

Java 7 Update 55

Java 7u40

Java can run applications developed using the java programming language and set of development tools. The JVM is a crucial component of the Java platform. The availability of JVMs on many types of hardware and software platforms enables Java to function both as middleware and a platform in its own right. Hence the expression 'Write once, run anywhere.'

Starting with J2SE 5.0, changes to the JVM specification have been developed under the Java Community Process as JSR 924. As of 2006, changes to specification to support changes proposed to the class file format (JSR 202) are being done as a maintenance release of JSR 924. The specification for the JVM is published in book form, known as 'blue book'.
