Oracle has announced that from January 2019, Java SE 8 public updates will no longer be available for business, commercial or production use without a commercial license although it will remain free for general purpose computing usage. In 2014, Oracle introduced a new desktop license – Java SE Advanced Desktop.
However, Java licensing began to get complicated when Oracle started to develop commercial features specifically for Java and make them available as separately licensed products – Java SE Advanced and Java SE Suite. Oracle acquired Sun in 2010 and part of the agreement was that Oracle would continue to make Java available free of charge under the open source model, which Oracle has done under its Oracle Binary Code License Agreement. When Sun first released Java, it did so under a proprietary software license but in 2007, Sun re-licensed Java under a General Public License making Java free to all under an open source model. Java is one of the most popular programming languages in the world with millions of Java-based applications created and many more applications that won’t work without Java being installed.
