The following is a non-exhaustive list of J2SE Java virtual machines. There are a large number of Java Platform, Micro Edition (J2ME) vendors not listed here. Note that J2EE runs on the standard J2SE JVM but that some vendors specialize in providing a modified JVM optimized for J2EE applications. A large amount of Java development work is done on either Windows or Linux, and that is primarily done with the Sun JVM, which is usually considered to be adequate quality for commercial deployment. The picture is even further complicated by 32-bit/64-bit varieties.
