Java Java is a programming language and a collection of platforms that are
targeted toward a specific hardware platform. Java programs are not
limited by the operating system (OS) as they are interpreted (run) by
another program called the Java Virtual Machine (JVM). This enables
Java programs to be portable—that is, they can be run on a server,
desktop, personal digital assistant (PDA), or in the browser.
