JVM
JVM, which stands for Java Virtual Machine, is an abstract machine that offers the runtime environment needed to execute Java bytecode. It is a specification that describes how the Java Virtual Machine operates. Oracle and other companies have contributed to its implementation. JRE is the name given to its implementation.
JVMs are accessible for a variety of hardware and software systems (so JVM is platform-dependent). It is a runtime instance that is created when the Java class is executed. The JVM has three concepts: specification, implementation, and instance.
JRE
JRE is an acronym that stands for Java Runtime Environment. It is the JVM implementation. A collection of software tools called the Java Runtime Environment is used to develop Java applications. It can be used to provide a runtime environment. It is how the JVM is implemented. It has a collection of libraries and additional files that the JVM uses during runtime.
JDK
JDK stands for Java Development Kit. Java programs and applets are developed in this software development environment. JRE and development tools are included in this. JDK is an implementation of any of the Java Platforms listed below, all of which were made available by Oracle Corporation:
– Standard Edition Java Platform
– Enterprise Edition Java Platform
– Micro Edition Java Platform
