History

JDK Mission Control started out as JRockit Mission Control, a production time profiling and diagnostics tools suite which was delivered as a part of the JRockit JVM distribution.{{cite web |title=JRockit Mission Control |url=https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/jrockit/mission-control/index.html |publisher=Oracle |accessdate=21 January 2019}} After Oracle acquired Sun Microsystems, JRockit Flight Recorder and JRockit Mission Control were rebranded Java Flight Recorder and Java Mission Control.{{cite web |title=Java Mission Control |url=https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javaseproducts/mission-control/index.html |accessdate=21 January 2019}} In 2018 both Java Flight Recorder and Java Mission Control were open sourced.{{cite web |title=JMC Open Sourced! | date=5 May 2018 |url=http://hirt.se/blog/?p=944 |accessdate=21 January 2019}} When open sourced they were rebranded JDK Mission Control and JDK Flight Recorder respectively, due to Java trademark issues. At the same time, the delivery format for JMC was changed, making it easier to upgrade JMC and the JDK independently.{{cite web |title=JMC - Now Serving OpenJDK Binaries Too! |url=https://blogs.oracle.com/java-platform-group/java-mission-control-now-serving-openjdk-binaries-too |accessdate=21 January 2019 |last1=Garcia-Ribeyro |first1=Aurelio }}
