CDC is part of the Java Platform, Mobile Edition (Java ME) family of standards that are continuously being developed in collaboration with industry leaders through the Java Community Process (JCP). The targets for CDC-based technology comprise a broad range of consumer and embedded devices like smart communicators, pagers, high-end personal digital assistants (PDAs), and set-top boxes. Within this range, CDC is the basis for several standard API bundles that address the needs of developers of applications for specific categories of devices.

A profile is a set of standard APIs that support a narrower category of devices within the framework of a chosen configuration. A specific profile is combined with a configuration like CDC to provide a complete Java application environment for the target device class. CDC supports three profiles. Note that these build on each other; for example, all the APIs of the Foundation Profile are also available in the other two:

An optional package is a set of technology-specific APIs that extends the functionality of a Java application environment. CDC supports a number of optional packages that allow product designers to balance the functionality needs of a design against its resource constraints.
- The RMI Optional Package provides a subset of J2SE RMI for networked consumer and embedded devices. It exposes distributed-application protocols through Java interfaces, classes, and method invocations, and insulates the developer from the details of network communications.
- The JDBC Optional Package provides a subset of the JDBC 3.0 API that gives Java-based applications access to tabular data sources, including spreadsheets and flat files, as well as cross-DBMS connectivity to a wide range of relational databases.

The CDC configuration was designed to bring the many advantages of the Java platform to a broad range of network-connected consumer and embedded devices, including smart communicators, high-end PDAs, and set-top boxes.
Devices that support CDC typically include a 32-bit microprocessor/controller and make about 2 MB of RAM and 2.5 MB of ROM available to the Java application environment.
