== Third Party Collaborations
Payara Platform Enterprise integrates with various other services that complement
your Java deployment experience on the platform.

=== Azul Platform
Payara’s partnership with Azul brings Azul Platform Core and Azul Platform Prime to
your application deployment.

==== Azul Platform Core
Azul Platform Core is designed for enterprise, distribution (ISV), and embedded (OEM)
use cases. It provides certified OpenJDK builds, Azul Zulu Builds of OpenJDK (Azul Zulu),
with tight security and the cost efficiencies you need to run today’s business–critical,
Java-based services. These builds are free to use and a drop-in replacement for any
other OpenJDK distribution.

Key advantages include:

* *High Trust*: Chosen by leading global brands, Azul Platform Core offers engineering support and 100% open-source builds that are Java SE compliant and TCK verified.
* *High Value*: Azul Platform Core is a one-to-one replacement for Oracle Java SE with the most architectures, package types, and configurations options compared to other OpenJDK providers.
* *High Security*: Azul Platform Core delivers quarterly stabilized security updates for rapid deployment into production, backed by an industry-leading support SLA.

==== Azul Platform Prime
Azul Platform Prime is a high-performance Java platform that delivers up to 37% faster
performance compared to other OpenJDK distributions. At its core is Azul Zing, an
enhanced build of OpenJDK that serves as the actual JDK running your applications.
The platform requires no code changes or recompilation, making integration
straightforward for existing Java applications.

Key advantages include:

* *Performance Improvements*: Azul Zing, the enhanced JDK that runs your
applications, achieves improved responsiveness and consistency while
maintaining performance SLAs, even as loads increase. It provides superior
application performance, responsiveness, and efficiency compared to standard
OpenJDK distributions.
* *Cost Reduction*: Organizations can reduce cloud compute costs by 20% or more
through Azul Zing’s more efficient CPU utilization and faster Java code
execution, requiring fewer compute resources for the same workload.
* *Advanced Garbage Collection*: Azul Zing includes the C4 Pauseless Garbage
Collector, which ensures consistent performance under heavy loads and
enables 2-5X more transaction processing without pauses, eliminating the
"stop-the-world" pauses that limit scalability in traditional JVMs.
* *Rapid Application Startup*: Azul Zing’s ReadyNow technology speeds up
application startup and time to peak performance by reusing profiling data,
solving traditional Java warm-up issues and allowing applications to start fast
and stay fast.
* *Optimizer Hub*: This optional Azul Platform Prime component provides
centralized JIT compilation and intelligent curation of optimization profiles,
enabling fleet-wide collaboration where multiple Azul Zing JVMs share
optimizations and learnings for improved cloud scale, elasticity, and cost
efficiencies.

Azul Platform Prime requires opt-in during contract negotiations with sales. Sales will
acquire a subscription based on vCPU cores, with annual billing directly from Azul.
Customers receive an installation wizard with the JVM enabled. For post-installation
enablement, contact sales - the service team will provide two commands to activate it
on your existing installation.
