2 Benefits of Migrating to Java Management Service
Java Management Service (JMS) is a reporting and management infrastructure integrated with Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Platform services to observe and manage your use of Java SE (on-premise or in the Cloud).
- Optimize workloads across the enterprise: Use insights from JMS to optimize your workloads across various Java deployments, spanning desktops, servers, and cloud environments.
- Safeguard Java SE investments: Protect your Java SE investments by identifying outdated Java installations, unauthorized applications, and Java runtime and application mismatches.

Additional Features in JMS
While both AMC and JMS utilize Java Usage Tracker and Agents to report and monitor Java usage, JMS stands out by offering a host of advanced features, elevating the capabilities of system administrators.
JMS administrators can unlock the full potential of JMS in diverse deployment scenarios, spanning across desktops, servers, or cloud environments covered by an Oracle Java SE subscription, Java SE Desktop subscription, or when running on an Oracle Cloud Infrastructure service that grants access to the underlying operating system. These administrators can:
- Scan for Java Libraries using Advanced Usage Tracking to identify and report potential vulnerabilities (CVE) associated with 3rd party Java libraries used by applications
- Optimize Java workload performance with JVM tuning recommendations from Performance Analysis
- Evaluate the effort and feasibility of migrating Java applications to newer JDK versions with Java Migration Analysis
- Assess the impact of Oracle JRE and JDK Cryptographic Roadmap changes on their applications using Crypto Event Analysis
- Scan for Java Servers using Advanced Usage Tracking to analyze the usage and deployment of Java services in the application servers
- Run JDK Flight Recorder to gather application insights
- Download and Install a Java Runtime using Java Runtime Lifecycle Management operations
- Remove a Java Runtime using Java Runtime Lifecycle Management operations
- Configure JDK Java Post-Installation Actions
Enhanced Operational Efficiency with JMS
Some of the advantages of moving to JMS include:
- Infrastructure Maintenance Eliminated: Unlike the on-premise deployment of AMC, JMS operates seamlessly within the cloud. This eliminates the need for separate infrastructure maintenance, thereby reducing complexity and operational overhead.
- Immediate Access to New Functionality: As a cloud service, JMS allows administrators to access new functionality as soon as they become available. This eliminates the need for manual intervention after each release to access new functionality.
- Minimal Downtime: Transitioning to JMS ensures minimal downtime during upgrades and maintenance activities. This uninterrupted availability enhances user experience and operational continuity.
- Flexibility and Scalability: Cloud-based JMS offers inherent flexibility and scalability, allowing you to adapt to changing business needs without the constraints of on-premise infrastructure. This elasticity ensures optimal resource utilization.
- Additional Capabilities: JMS provides advanced features that empower administrators with enhanced insights, performance optimization, and proactive analysis for Java workloads.
- Continuous Oracle Enhancements: Oracle's commitment to JMS ensures that additional features and capabilities will be introduced over time. This keeps your environment aligned with evolving best practices and technological advancements.
- Leverage other OCI Services: The upgrade to JMS not only optimizes your Java management practices but also positions you to harness the potential of other OCI services.
