A microchip that, when added to a computer, will accelerate the performance of Java programs. The special chip can execute all or some of the instructions in the Java bytecode directly without requiring interpretation by a software virtual machine.

An application program interface (API) that provides a uniform framework for the implementation of security features in Java.   

An Application Program Interface (API) that enables a Java programmer to access a database implicitly - that is, without having to make explicit Structured Query Language (SQL) statements.

An Application Program Interface (API) specification for connecting programs written in Java to the data in popular databases. The API lets you encode access request statements in SQL that are then passed to the program that manages the database. 

The JDBC Connector is a program that enables various databases to be accessed by Java application servers that are run on the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) from Sun Microsystems. Its connects an application server with a JDBC driver. 

A program development environment for writing Java applets and applications. It consists of a runtime environment that "sits on top" of the operating system layer as well as the tools and programming that developers need.

Using the Java programming language, JFC are pre-written code in the form of class libraries (coded routines) that give the programmer a comprehensive set of graphical user interface (GUI) routines to use. 

A set of specifications for application and network management in the J2EE development and application environment. JMX defines a method for Java developers to integrate their applications with existing network management software.

An application program interface (API) from Sun Microsystems that supports the formal communication known as messaging between computers in a network. 

JNDI enables Java platform-based applications to access multiple naming and directory services. JNDI makes it possible for developers to create portable applications that are enabled for a number of different naming and directory services.

JOLAP is a Java application-programming interface (API) for the Java 2 Platform, Enterprise Edition (J2EE) environment that supports the creation, storage, access, and management of data in an online analytical processing (OLAP) application. 

The Java Persistence API (JPA) is an application programming interface specification which provides Java developers an object/relational mapping facility for managing relational data in Java applications. It was developed by the EJB 3.0 software expert group and it can also be used directly by web applications and application clients, and even outside the Java EE platform, for example, in Java SE applications.

A finger ring that contains a small microprocessor with built-in capabilities for the user, a sort of smart card that is wearable on a finger. 

Part of the Java Development Kit (JDK). It provides the minimum requirements for executing a Java application. It consists of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), core classes, and supporting files.

A technology for controlling the content or appearance of Web pages through the use of servlets, small programs that are specified in the Web page and run on the Web server to modify the Web page before it is sent to the user who requested it.

  A Java class in Java EE that conforms to the Java Servlet API, a protocol by which a Java class may respond to requests. They are commonly used to extend the applications hosted by web servers.
