Lower standard annual pricing for small, medium, and emerging organizations
Oracle is announcing that simplified pricing and purchasing of the Java SE Universal Subscription for organizations with fewer than 3,000 employees is now available. The change recognizes the increasing use of Java among small, medium, and emerging organizations, as AI adoption brings new capabilities to the applications that run their businesses.
The objective is straightforward: make the benefits of the Java SE Universal Subscription more accessible to small and medium businesses through easy online purchasing and affordable annual pricing.
| Employees | New Annual Price (USD) |
|---|---|
| 10 or fewer | $100 |
| 100 or fewer | $1,000 |
| 500 or fewer | $10,000 |
| Per Additional Employee 501-2,999 | $147.20 (in addition to $10,000 for the first 500) |
| 3,000 Employees or more | Unchanged – see Enterprise Pricing |
Organizations with 500 or fewer employees can conveniently purchase directly online at the Oracle Store. Organizations with additional needs should contact Oracle Sales.

Supporting Java’s Growing Role in AI
As organizations integrate AI into their operations, they connect new capabilities with existing business systems. Java applications and services connect AI integrations to the business logic, data, and systems powering core operations—from financial transactions and supply chains to customer experiences and digital services. Java’s role in providing AI with trusted access to business systems and data is highlighted in the recent Java 27 announcement.
This expanding role for Java extends to small, medium, and emerging organizations, where teams are integrating AI into existing applications and building new services. The new pricing model aligns with that growth by substantially simplifying the pricing and purchasing for Java SE Universal Subscription.
