Java ES and Sun Java System Suites: What's the Difference?
Some administrators are confused by the difference between Java ES and Sun Java System Suites.
This is understandable because administrators most often interact with component products like Application Server and Identity Manager, and both Java ES and the Sun Java System Suites are consolidations of component products like these.
The difference between Java ES and the Sun Java System Suites revolves around which component products each includes. Each Sun Java System Suite includes a subset of the components in Java ES: a subset aimed at meeting a particular business need. From another point of view, Java ES is the superset of all the components in all the Sun Java System Suites.
