- by Tori Wieldt
Oracle today announced a new product in its Java Platform, Micro Edition (Java ME) product portfolio, Oracle Java ME Embedded 3.2, a complete client Java runtime Optimized for resource-constrained, connected, embedded systems. Also, Oracle is releasing Oracle Java Wireless Client 3.2, Oracle Java ME Software Development Kit (SDK) 3.2. Oracle also announced Oracle Java Embedded Suite 7.0 for larger embedded
devices, providing a middleware stack for embedded systems. Small is the new big!
Introducing Oracle Java ME Embedded 3.2
Oracle Java ME Embedded 3.2 is designed and optimized to meet the unique requirements of small embedded, low power devices such as micro-controllers and other resource-constrained hardware without screens or user interfaces. These include:
On-the-fly application downloads and updates
Remote operation, often in challenging environments
Ability to add new capabilities without impacting the existing functions
Support for hardware with as little as 130 kB RAM and 350 kB ROM
Oracle Java Wireless Client 3.2
Oracle Java Wireless Client 3.2 is built around an optimized Java ME implementation that delivers a feature-rich application environment for mass-market mobile devices. This new release:
Leverages standard JSRs, Oracle optimizations/APIs and a flexible porting layer for device specific customizations, which are tuned to device/chipset requirements
Supports advanced tooling functions, such as memory and network monitoring and on-device tooling
Offers new support for dual SIM functionality, which is highly useful for mass-market devices supported by multiple carriers with multiple phone connections
Oracle Java ME SDK 3.2
Oracle Java ME SDK 3.2 provides a complete development environment for both Oracle Java ME Embedded 3.2 and Oracle Java Wireless Client 3.2. Available for download from OTN, The latest version includes:
Small embedded device support
In-field and remote administration and debugging
Java ME SDK plug-ins for Eclipse and the NetBeans Integrated Development Environment (IDE), enabling more application development environments for Java ME developers.
A new device skin creator that developers can use to generate their custom device skins for testing their applications.
Oracle Embedded Suite 7.0
The Oracle Java Embedded Suite is a new packaged solution from Oracle
(including Java DB, GlassFish for Embedded Suite, Jersey Web Services Framework, and
Oracle Java SE Embedded 7 platform), created to provide value added
services for collecting, managing, and transmitting data to and from
other embedded devices.The Oracle Java Embedded Suite is a complete
device-to-data center solution subset for embedded systems.
