Java Runtime Environment 8

[BoraMurdar]

Java software allows you to run applications called "applets" that are written in the Java programming language. These applets allow you to have a much richer experience online than simply interacting with static HTML pages.

Java Plug-in technology, included as part of the Java Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (JRE), establishes a connection between popular browsers and the Java platform. Java allows applications to be downloaded over a network and run within a guarded sandbox. Security restrictions are easily imposed on the sandbox. Many cross platform applications also require Java to operate properly.

As it is suggested that the old version 7 of Java be uninstalled prior to switching to version 8, there is a nice utility, JavaRa, that can be run after using the normal Java uninstall utility to confirm that all traces of the old version are gone:
