The JRockit code base was discontinued by Oracle, with some features being integrated into the HotSpot virtual machine as part of the mainline development of the Java platform.[2] JRockit only ever supported Java 6, which is now considered an obsolete release.
Following the finalization of the acquisition of Sun Microsystems, Oracle announced in JavaOne 2010 that the best features of JRockit would be implemented in OpenJDK.[3][4]
In May 2011, Oracle announced that JRockit has become free, and confirmed the plan to port JRockit features on OpenJDK.[5]
