The Java™ Programming Language is a general-purpose, concurrent, strongly typed, class-based object-oriented language. It is normally compiled to the bytecode instruction set and binary format defined in the Java Virtual Machine Specification. In the Java programming language, all source code is first written in plain text files ending with the .java extension. Those source files are then compiled into .class files by the javac compiler. A .class file does not contain code that is native to your processor; it instead contains bytecodes — the machine language of the Java Virtual Machine1 (Java VM). The java launcher tool then runs your application with an instance of the Java Virtual Machine.

If yours is one of the majority of organizations migrating your existing commercial database to open sources, such as MySQL or PostgreSQL, or if you’re building new in-house applications on open-source database management systems (OSDBMS), then you know that commercial tooling for these databases falls short. What if you could save money by implementing OSDBMS and ramp up quickly by working with a familiar toolset? You can with Toad Edge®. It’s a lightweight, reliable desktop toolset that simplifies development and management tasks for open-source databases. Using Toad for MySQL and PostgreSQL management makes it easier to master new database platforms quickly. If you’re taking on MariaDB, Amazon Redshift, or EDB Postgres Advanced Server, Toad Edge will simplify your work on those platforms as well. Toad Edge supports coding, editing, schema compare and sync, and DevOps CI processes, so you can manage your open-source databases easily and confidently.
