JRockit was a proprietary Java virtual machine (JVM) originally developed by Appeal Virtual Machines, acquired by BEA Systems in 2002,[1] and became part of Oracle Fusion Middleware as part of acquisition of BEA Systems in 2008.
The JRockit code base was discontinued by Oracle, with some features being integrated into the HotSpot virtual machine as part of the mainline development of the Java platform.[2] JRockit only ever supported Java 6, which is now considered an obsolete release.
History
[edit]Following the finalization of the acquisition of Sun Microsystems, Oracle announced in JavaOne 2010 that the best features of JRockit would be implemented in OpenJDK.[3][4]
In May 2011, Oracle announced that JRockit has become free, and confirmed the plan to port JRockit features on OpenJDK.[5]

Since we are converging the JVMs technically it makes sense to treat them as a single "product" with two different incarnations/implementations. Second, by making JRockit free we hope to get more feedback on any regressions in the converged JVM vs current JRockit, which will help our convergence project.

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
