JRockit JVM vs HotSpot JVM

If anyone can give me a summary of the advantages and disadvantages of the two JVMs, as they all depend on the standard JVM specification.

JRockit was originally developed by Appeal and BEA Systems before acquiring Oracle to run server software. 1 It was supposed to be optimized for large applications requiring lengthy tasks, a large amount of memory and a scalable environment, promoting optimization for these scenarios even further than Sun HotSpot JVM in server mode (see also: Real differences between the "java server" and "java -client", ).

Ever since Sun Microsystems acquired Oracle Oracle has announced

In fact, as mentioned in the same blog,; and some of the JRockit functions are gradually being added to HotSpot ().

There is no JRockit version for java 7. The loaded JDK for Java 7 and Java 8 is Java HotSpot. I can confirm this to download Java 7 and Java 8 jdk for oracle. Link for Java 7

Here is the version confirmation for java -version for JDK 1.7
Java (TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_80-b15)
Java HotSpot (TM) 64-bit server VM (build 24.80-b11, mixed mode)

JRockit and HotSpot were merged, and JDK 7 contains the first release of this converged JVM (see Henrik's Java 7 blog)

JRockit used to be considered the best, although I'm not sure that this has always been proven sequentially. Oracle is currently integrating JRockit and HotSpot.
