JVM Architecture Details

The JVM (Java Virtual Machine) is the engine that runs Java programs. It is made up of three main components: the class loader, runtime data area, and execution engine. The class loader loads Java class files into memory, the runtime data area stores data while the program is running, and the execution engine executes the Java program by interpreting bytecode or generating native machine code with the JIT (Just-In-Time) compiler. The JVM is platform-independent and allows Java programs to run on any platform with a JVM installed.
