BEA WebLogic JRockit 5.0 JDK Off Its Launchpad

The BEA WebLogic JRockit 5.0 Java Development Kit (JDK) is available for download. Compatible with the J2SE 5.0 specification, WebLogic JRockit 5.0 is designed to offer the highest performing, simplest to use and most manageable Java Virtual Machine (JVM) optimised for 32-bit and 64-bit Intel Xeon processor and Intel Itanium2 processor-based servers, according to published industry standard benchmarks. Out-of-the-box, WebLogic JRockit 5.0 is designed to allow Java developers to deploy their applications more quickly and efficiently into production, helping to achieve optimal performance through minimal configuration. JRockit 5.0 is also designed to make it possible to more easily diagnose problems and help to analyse the applications’ behaviour and performance in real-time, during production, without imposing a noticeable performance penalty. WebLogic JRockit 5.0 is scheduled to be available for free download on December 16, and to be demonstrated at BEA eWorld China, scheduled for December 16-17 at the Shanghai International Convention Centre.
