Company overview

Specialization

The company develops and supports Liberica JDK and JRE binary distributions.[2] The company specializes in cloud deployments and solutions for container environments. BellSoft has created Docker images with JDK and Alpine Linux that take less than 50 MB of storage.[3]

BellSoft has signed the OpenJDK Community TCK License Agreement (OCTLA.)[4] As part of the OpenJDK Vulnerability Group, it collects, reviews, and fixes security problems in OpenJDK.[5]

Contributing JDK Enhancement Proposals

Besides contributing to upstream OpenJDK, BellSoft has developed two JEPs (JDK Enhancement Proposals). The first one, JEP 315, dealt with AArch64 port optimizations. It was released alongside Java SE 11 in September 2018.[6]

The second, JEP 386, is scheduled to integrate the Alpine Linux port to upstream OpenJDK. It is designed to allow for the building of a JDK on Linux distributions that use musl as their primary C library[3]. This JEP is expected to be included in Java SE 16, which is scheduled for release in 2021.

International ratings

BellSoft is among the top 5 organizations that contribute to the JDK code and resolve issues during the development of new versions — along with Oracle, SAP, Google, and Red Hat.[7]

Products and services

Liberica JDK

Liberica JDK is a free and open source implementation of Java SE. It is built from the OpenJDK code and verified by TCK for Java SE standard compliance.[8] Liberica JDK’s release cycle is aligned with Oracle Java SE and OpenJDK.[9]

Liberica JDK runs on x86 64/32 bit, ARM, PowerPC, SPARC and on the following operating systems: Windows (desktop and server), macOS, the majority of known Linux distributions (with full-fledged support for Alpine Linux, Solaris). All JDK versions support JavaFX and JDK Flight Recorder (JFR). The Full preset includes LibericaFX and Minimal VM. [10]

Liberica Mission Control

Liberica Mission Control is a low-overhead Java profiler that was designed from the JMC project. It represents the data of JVM events collected during Java application runtime. Its purpose is to ease the debugging process in production environments.

Liberica Mission Control is compatible with Liberica JDK and other OpenJDK builds that include OpenJDK Flight Recorder code.[11]

BellSoft Support

BellSoft offers commercial support for LTS versions of Liberica JDK and other products. It is provided on a subscription basis for 8 years of version updates as per Java SE Support Roadmap.[9]

The company fixes vulnerabilities in the JDK mainline by sending all its troubleshooting results upstream.[12]

BellSoft’s support engineers are directly involved in the development of OpenJDK as part of its community.[13]

History

BellSoft was established in 2017 by Grigory Labzovsky and Alexander Belokrylov, who both worked previously at Sun Microsystems and Oracle for over 10 years.[14]

Its first project was an OpenJDK port for ARM32 to make Java 9 and Java 10 available on Raspberry Pi computers.[15][16][17]

Partnerships

The most notable partnerships as of 2020 are:

VMware

VMware and BellSoft announced their collaboration in June 2020. BellSoft provides its main product, Liberica JDK, and full support for VMware Tanzu Runtime. VMware Tanzu is a portfolio of products and services to build, run, and manage container-based applications.[18][19] [20]

JetBrains

JetBrains accepted the offer to support JetBrains Runtime, the company’s runtime environment for IntelliJ platform-based software on Windows, macOS, and Linux.[21] BellSoft provides security patches and critical updates for JetBrains Runtime.[22]

Haulmont

Haulmont Technology specializes in the development and implementation of corporate information systems. Its flagship product, the CUBA Platform, is a [Full Stack|full stack], open source [Java virtual machine|JVM] framework for enterprise software. In summer 2019, Haulmont and Bellsoft cross-tested their products and confirmed that CUBA is fully compatible with Liberica JDK.[23]

Customers

Of all the organizations that use BellSoft’s products, the most prominent are the following:

  • Alfa-Bank is one of the largest private banks in Russia. It entered into a partnership with BellSoft in 2018. Alfa-Bank uses lightweight Docker containers with Liberica JDK in its microservice-based banking applications, and it is subscribed to BellSoft Support.26. [25]
  • JSC CROC is a system integrator company that also offers B2B and consulting services. CROC was the first enterprise to enroll Bellsoft's partner program. Its Java-based solutions, Java eXtendable FrameWork (jXFW) and the Electronic Document Management System KSED 3.0, are fully compatible with Liberica JDK.[27]
