Samsung Electronics (005930.KS) is adopting Oracle's Java platform across the company to standardize its global software development environment.

Oracle announced Thursday that Samsung Electronics has adopted the Oracle Java SE Universal Subscription and will consolidate its enterprise application development environment onto Oracle Java.

Samsung Electronics decided to standardize on a single application development platform across its software development projects to expand and support employees worldwide. Oracle plans to help Samsung Electronics strengthen security and secure consistent enterprise-grade support across its internal software environment.

In particular, the Java SE Universal Subscription enables engineers to quickly receive the latest security patches so that semiconductor development can proceed without interruption.

"By partnering with Oracle Java, we can minimize operational risks and simplify license management, allowing us to focus on innovation," said Lee Keun-ho, Executive Vice President of Samsung Electronics' AI Center. Mike Ringhofer, Senior Vice President of Oracle's Global Java Business, said, "We are proud to support Samsung Electronics' engineering teams in driving semiconductor technology innovation with Oracle Java."
