JAVA EMBEDDED PRODUCTS OVERVIEW

Oracle Java SE Embedded

Java SE is commonly known as the platform that runs on desktops and servers. It offers a high-performance virtual machine, full high-performance graphics support, deployment infrastructure, and a rich set of features and libraries. Java SE Embedded has been optimized for mid-range to high-end embedded systems.

Devices having 32MB (without graphics) or more for Java can use Oracle's Java SE Embedded

Oracle Java ME Embedded Client

Oracle Java Micro Edition Embedded Client is based on Connected Device Configuration (CDC), a subset of the Java SE platform and draws from the origins of the Java platform, which was originally designed for embedded devices. While scaled down to fit the limitations of resource-constrained devices and optimized for low to mid-range embedded-systems, Oracle Java ME Embedded Client provides most of the Java language and runtime features developers know and are accustomed to with Java SE.

Devices having 8MB (without graphics) or more for Java can use Oracle's Java ME Embedded Client

Oracle Java ME Embedded

Oracle Java ME Embedded is based on Connected Limited Device Configuration (CLDC), and is a Java runtime stack optimized for small embedded systems. It provides a robust and flexible application platform with dedicated embedded functionality for always-on, headless (no graphics/UI), and connected devices. Oracle Java ME Embedded enables system designers and developers to create sophisticated small embedded solutions leveraging the benefits of the Java language, runtime, and ecosystem while meeting tight system resource targets..

Devices having 130 KB or more for Java can use Oracles Java ME For Embedded (headless / no UI)

The latest release of Java ME SDK, provides support for small embedded application development, thus providing a development and an emulation environment for applications targeted for commercial devices that will be powered by Oracle Java ME Embedded.

The Oracle Java ME Embedded product is a brand new product based on the Java CLDC configuration and targets small, resource-constrained embedded devices such as wireless modules for m2m, industrial control, smartgrid infrastructure, environmental sensors and tracking, and more. While the already existing Java ME based product, Oracle Java ME Embedded Client, is based on the Java CDC configuration and targets more powerful, mid-range embedded devices such as e-book readers, Blu-ray Disc players, Voice Over IP telephones, televisions, set-top boxes, printers, residential gateways.

Oracle Java Embedded Suite

Oracle Java Embedded Suite adds enterprise-type features to the Java SE Embedded runtime. With Java Embedded Suite, embedded applications can:

> Store data in a Java DB relational database.
> Host GlassFish servlet-based web applications, for example, to give secure remote access to device data and operations.
> Host and access RESTful web services with Oracle's Jersey implementation of the JAX-RS specification.
