Oracle Java SE Universal Subscription features and benefits

Modernize, safeguard, and accelerate your Java investment with the enterprise solution for organizations that prioritize stability, security, and support without compromising their ability to innovate.

Oracle Java Management Service

Java Management Service (JMS) is an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) service that discovers, manages, and helps secure enterprise Java estates across on‑premises (endpoints and servers), OCI, and multicloud deployments. It delivers unified visibility, automated patching and inventory, vulnerability insights, and agentless application analysis for migration and performance, reducing risk and operational overhead while improving efficiency and compliance at scale.

Java SE Subscription Enterprise Performance Pack

Oracle brings JDK 17 performance to JDK 8 server workloads

Oracle Java SE Subscription Enterprise Performance Pack (EPP) makes the significant memory management and performance improvements brought to Java from the releases between JDK 8 and JDK 17 available to JDK 8 users. EPP is a drop‑in runtime for JDK 8 workloads that helps improve performance and memory efficiency. Typical results include faster response times and lower CPU utilization—no code changes required.
