3-8 Oracle Fusion Middleware Concepts Guide
3.1.2.3 JMS Messaging Standard
Java Message Service JMS is a messaging standard defined by Sun Microsystems. JMS is a set of interfaces and associated semantics that defines how a JMS client
accesses the facilities of an enterprise messaging product.
Oracle WebLogic Server JMS provides a Java API for Advanced Queuing AQ based on the JMS standard. Oracle WebLogic Server JMS supports the standard JMS
interfaces and has extensions to support the AQ administrative operations and other AQ features that are not a part of the standard.
For more information about JMS see the Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuring and Managing JMS for Oracle WebLogic Server.
3.1.2.4 Enterprise Grid Messaging
Oracle WebLogic Server includes a highly performant and reliable Java Messaging engine built into the application server. As part of the application server, it shares the
management infrastructure, services, and processes with the server, which means reduced overhead both from an operations and run time perspective.
Oracle WebLogic Server Enterprise Grid Messaging is a key component in Oracle Fusion Middleware and is commonly used as a full-fledged enterprise messaging
backbone. Besides high performance, WebLogic Enterprise Messaging Grid includes the reliability, availability, and integration capabilities you would expect from an
enterprise messaging solution. It also includes unique innovative features such as out-of-the-box integration with Oracle AQ and strict message processing order in
enterprise-scale clustered applications.
For more information see the Oracle Fusion Middleware Information Roadmap for Oracle WebLogic Server guide.
3.1.2.5 JRockit
JRockit is a portfolio of Java run time solutions for Java platform, Standard Edition Java SE.
JRockit provides a solution for latency-sensitive applications, such as financial front office response, military command and control, and telecommunications networks,
resulting in significant performance increases and reduced costs.
The JRockit JVM is a high-performance JVM developed to ensure reliability, scalability, manageability, and flexibility for Java applications. The JRockit JVM
delivers a new level of performance for Java applications deployed on Intel 32-bit Xeon and 64-bit Xeon, Itanium, and SPARC architectures at significantly lower
costs to the enterprise. Furthermore, it is the only enterprise-class JVM optimized for Intel architectures, providing seamless interoperability across multiple hardware and
operating configurations. The JRockit JVM makes it possible to gain optimal performance for Java applications when running it on either the Windows or Linux
operating platforms on either 32-bit or 64-bit architectures. The JRockit JVM is especially well-suited for running Oracle WebLogic Server.
For more information about JRockit see the Oracle Fusion Middleware Introduction to Oracle WebLogic Server.
